Well i just moved into my new house before winter, and the phone guy just came today to bury and connect the line and when i went out to just check it out, i noticed about 30 ticks just sitting on the white plastic skirting , that closes in my deck.. No idea where they came from , i thought these **** things were supposed to be out in the grass. its not like i mind finding one on me , but having a shitload of them just lounging 10 feet from my window creeps me out a bit.. found one on the cat a few days ago and on me a few before that, thinking it was just from riding the bike through the trails..

So anyways , is there a way to get rid of these things, or are they attracted to somethingthat could trap n kill them? I think im getting the **** creepy crawlies now just knowing there are a ton of them in sight , i dont even want to know how many are where i cant see since you could fit about 100 of these bastards on something the size of a nickle

You better start shaving your balls.

It's easiest to call an exterminator and they will spray everything down. Without experience you will be fighting them for a while..

When i was little i had somehow gotten into a nest of them, i remember 5 or 6 had bitten me on the side of my weiner, and the next day the end of it on the left side was swoll to the size of a golf ball. I thought one of my nuts had somehow gotten to the end of my weiner, atleast thats what i told the doctor.

When I was a kid my mom made me stay home from school to watch my brother because he was sick, While I was beating him up I gave him a noogie and found a tick on his head.

Seems it was rocky mountain spotted fever that was making him sik. No wonder he didn't fight back as hard as usual...

****it.. i did get some spray tho, u spray it around the entire perimeter of where ever you dont want bigs, ( ticks spiders etc ) and it keeps them away, so we will see how it works
