Tick talk......

people have been mentioning the amount of tick bites they have had this year, myself included. A friend's bite developed into Lyme's disease, luckily they caught it in the early stages. What doesn't help is the size of bracken this year, which has grown ' as high as an elephant's eye ' in some places and is a regular place for ticks to drop onto unsuspecting humans and animals. Small plastic tick removers are easy to get and handy to have.
