Default tick season

Be aware that they are saying tick season maybe really bad this year.
I know of at least 3 instances that people have found ticks already.
1. girl at work had one crawling up her neck while at work
2. dtr found one on her bed

Both have dogs that run outside

3. My dh has several skin tags on his side. Last night he took his shirt off and sat down on the bed to fix his alarm. I had my glasses off and thought he had a new skin tag on his back. I told him it had grown really fast, thinking skin cancer. I looked real close (blind w/o glasses) and told him it was a fat tick. He did not believe me and went and looked in mirror. He then agreed it was a tick that had been there a while. Grossed me out, it was grey and fat. No tweezers in the house so called dtr next door and she came and got it off him. Hubby's nerves bothered him the rest of the night. My dogs do not go outside except when we are holding them (pee pads are used inside). He had to have gotten it in the yard.
Now watching for signs of diseases. CREEPY....!
