All,

Just curious if others have been finding less or more ticks so far
this spring.  I just arrived back at my place in Round Hill a week ago
Monday.  So far, I have only found one tick on myself and one on one
of my dogs.  Yesterday, I spent about 4 hours clearing brush, rose and
berry canes to make a new path down to the river.  The dogs were both
with me while I worked on the hillside.  Normally, all of us probably
would have been loaded with ticks by the end of the afternoon, but so
far, I have not found any (knock on wood).  Is anyone else finding the
same paucity of ticks?  By the way, last summer, after a few ticks
found on the dogs and myself in April and May, I did not find any more
ticks on us during the rest of the season.  This was very different
than previous years when I was finding them even into the autumn.
