This years early spring has ticks out in full force!

This is my 2nd season of spring turkey hunting, typically I just spend the spring fishing. Last season I encountered the occasional 1 or 2 ticks on me, but today was a different story....After my hunt this afternoon I found 4 ticks crawling on me on the ride home. Decided to strip down in the garage when I got home...Total tick count was 19 by the end.

Same here but don't buy the sawyers stuff for $15 a bottle. Go to Tractor Supply and look in the horse supplies and buy a bottle of concentrate for $20 and mix your own for years to come. Get a small gallon size garden sprayer, mix in it and then spray all of your cloths down with it I mean really get them wet and let them hang dry. I hunted for the past 6 days and never had a tick or redbug!
