Its been all in the news lately about Ticks in BC.
So always a good idea to educate ourselves before heading out into the big wide world....

here are a couple of websites that make useful reading;

What with mosquittoes, pine beetles and ticks who needs to worry about bears and cougars anymore :D

it's not that bad around here, my mutts are out in tall grass all day, and get maybe one tick a year...

I went on a road trip through montana and north dakota, dog picked up 5 ticks in one day out there.
