im actually more worried about getting limes from a tick in the busy town i work in rather than my own woods.the deer travel in packs in town during winter.ive seen as many as 14 together at one time.i really only see solitary deers up my way during summer/winter.
from what i understand,a tick needs to be on one deer,drop off,get another deer to start the whole limes thing.but who fucking knows.i just plan on getting it and hoping for a cure.sad but true,those bastards are small and can be hard to find
lyme comes from the white footed mouse,the same ones the govt use for all kinds of nasty testing,wonder if there is a link lyme didn't exist in the 70s

Here is my old patch. I had gave up on it, as it stopped bearing. But I see new blooms on them today. I'm a few days away from bush hogging and discing it under. Until then I may get another mess off them.

Don't judge me by the amount of weeds in my garden. I've been spending all me free time on the trail. Both of my gardens are suffering from it.

Back in the day I had them on my Hallucie plant. I didn't know what they were, {I called them wasp fly's} but the plant was dying from the top down and growing like a mofo the whole time. This was pre-google, so I used what I used on my veggies. A Shaklee liquid soap called Basic H mixed with water. I picked worms, sprayed and cut top buds twice a week for three weeks. I still got almost a unit off her.
