I just found a tick on my leg and that bugger had to go immediately even if it involved a walk to the pharmacy to buy the tool. I have had far too much bad luck this year so the last thing I need is TBE.

Of course this is the main disadvantage with my chosen terrain running trail. There are a few spots which are swamp with long grass and my running in shorts makes it easier for bugs to jump over. So when I get home from work I will have to do a more serious inspection.

Welcome to August...month of bug hell.
