Tick, Tick, Tick

Don’t much like the scorpions when I find them in the house but tics, definitely could not handle those.

Of all the horror movies out there about big worms, spiders, etc. I would think that someone would have put out one about huge ticks. That could be one really horror filled movie!

You know that Licenex stuff sounds like this stuff called DE or perma-guard that I bought for my garden as a fertilizer and nutritional supplement for myself and loved ones(amazing at growing out fingernails fast and it is suppose to rid the body of unbeknown parasites and have all kinds of other health benefits), but it has a rep as a bug killer too. I got it in a 50 pound bag for about $21. I just read that it works on ticks. These are good sites about it. It can be bought on the net or at the places listed on the site below. It sounds a lot like the expensive licenex stuff, but if pretty cheap. Your post reminded me about it so I looked up a site. I got my 50 pound bag at a place not too far away that sells all different things to farmer. What I am doing is sprinkling it all around the area of the garden, not just in the soil, to rid the area around the garden of them. Don't know if it will actually work but worth a try. Sounds like it might work in a house too, if necessary (God forbid).

After looking up sites about it again, I learned all kinds of new things about how good it is for you internally too. Make sure you get the right brand, perm-guard, as it is the purest.

Sulfur (from the feed store) sprinkled on shoes and pants legs keeps them off. Especially those creepy (what we call) seed ticks.

That sounds like an interesting idea. I didn't know that you could buy sulfur at feed stores. Is it really stinky? Not that that would stop me from using it if it actually works. Does it also repel mosquitoes?

That’s where we got it. It really doesn’t smell much unless you get right down there. I have no idea on skeeters though. Never thought of it. Might work. I do know that lemon/lime on your skin keeps them off. I try to drink as much lemonade or fresh lime squeezed in my water while I’m out.
