    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

    I still call it Lebanon as well :) My theory is that your more likely to get chigged where ever warm blooded animals walk.Primarily deer.So this is why they are often picked up in roads.Deer walk these same as we do.You need grass or something growing in the road for the chigs to climb.They...

    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

I have never gotten them with fresh applied peremthrin on my...

    Guy downsized the pics for me and it worked fine but have never had trouble posting 1.2 meg pics before.My camera always takes them at about that size.I have a program that will downsize them for me.I may have to figure out how to use that feature again.

    600 acres along Menantico Creek preserved in Vineland

    I used to hang around the lake back in the late 70's.My uncle lived on sherman avenue and it was a fifteen minute walk behind his house to the Lake.Almost got busted in the screen house once but saw the man coming on a riding lawn mower.I was faster and when I hit the woods barefooted it was all...

    Timbers (Snakes)

    Jessica is correct.Black rats are shiny like that and always looked kinked up.It's because they climb that way by kinking and grasping bark with their belly scales.They are not very fast on the ground and usually freeze when approached but are excellent climbers.A racer will skedaddle though and...

    Timbers (Snakes)

    Not at all but I have known a few men to claim they don't like snakes and would run like Hell every time they seen one.That is a little stronger then dislike.My son in law is a cop and scared to death of them and will tell you so.Has been in gun fights and has no fear, fist fights no problem but...
