Earlyer I took a friends son out
As he will be joining us this fall
I showed him 2 great spots for treestands
I showed him , because he lives not 300 yards from the first one
And the second one is a PITA for me to get to
Well the deep dark WET NW Ohio Black Swamp woods was alive today
With the humm of millions of Skeeters
As we put up his ladder stand
I figure we each got bit 50+ times
And that was with Skeeter spray and me wearing a mesh skeeter proof jacket
I know come fall or at least after the area drys up
Most of the skeeters will be gone
As we got close to the edge of the woods
I looked at my pants
9 ticks just on my pants
Not sure how many he had
But we killed them all
Glad we had tucked our pants into our socks before we headed out
How are you guys dealing with the Skeeters and ticks ??
Anyone else having a bumper crop of them both this year ?
