 seed ticks
I had a GIANT problem with ticks a few years ago. I live in Arizona, and have never seen anything like it. I have lived in this house for 10 years. The first 5 years, I didnt see a flea, tick or anything else. Then, in a mater of a week, my dogs were covered head to toe with seed ticks. I have no idea where they came from. I picked, sprayed, bathed, bombed, cleaned over and over and over again. They got in the house too. It was a nightmare!!!!! I would have to check my cloths before I went out of the house or to work. They were all over the yard. I could see them running up the garden hose and onto the porch. I would pick them off each dog, then the next day, they would be covered again. I used Zodiac flea and tick shampoo for puppies and kittens and Zodiac house bombs as well as apholstery spray. It took a good year of picking, spraying, bathing, cleaning, and bombing to finally get rid of them. I havent seen a tick now in 3 years. I have never seen anything like it. It was the most nasty, horrible thing I have had to deal with in my life. So get on it. Dont let them multiply!!! Good luck, Lynn |
