Alaska don't have ticks?

[kwackkillncrew]

after some googling there apparently are some, yet I have never found one or have ever herd of anyone having ticks on them up here. with all the hunting , hike in fishing and land surveying i spend a pile of time in the woods and have never found one on my self or dogs. I dont look for them on me but if there was one i am sure i would notice it after a few days. To busy looking out for big brown critters

Deer ticks are awful. I had Lyme right before Easter… by far the worst I’ve ever felt. Two weeks on doxycycline hopefully took care of it. My dog ran for a couple hours yesterday and was covered in them- I’ve never seen so many on a dog.

I was mostly on the atv yesterday but I did a bunch of trail clearing so I definitely could have picked up a few. I’m pretty careful about checking at the end of the day and I have several pairs of pants treated with permethrin.

I also tend to wear knee high socks and spray sown the socks and boots with deet or picaridin

Burn the woods....gets rid of ticks

Totally agree. Wish there was a lot more fire out there
