Ticks are a problem. Yes, Democrats, but I’m also referring to the parasitic arachnids that cling to us and our pets. Back in the spring (when ticks are abundant), some experts predicted tick season all summer long which inspired us to do some research to test the theory.
As many of you know, I have a yellow lab with white fur. We also have a large enough yard, backed up to woods and near enough to wetlands that we get a fair selection of New Hampshire wildlife walking through it. And when ticks are typically numerous, we get lots of them too.
As previously reported, it was a busy spring. We saw a lot of ticks on the “white dog” and at least a few crawling on us.
In the July update, we reported none. Zero. But June was cool, and July, while warmer, may not have satisfied the Warmist’s impulse to predict tick summer. Late July into August produced one of the better heat waves we’ve seen in a good while. The Climate Cult lost what passes for its mind.
Tribal drum circles, repeated demands to sacrifice western civilization on their altar, dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria…but no ticks—none in July, and none in August.
We checked. Every day. Every trip outdoors with the pooch. It is a must. His preventatives will result in the ticks dropping in the house and claiming on us. We dislike this almost as much as listening to hair-sniffing pedo-Hitler dehumanizing republicans so his IRS stormtroopers can arrest and imprison them.
Those aren’t people; they are …Trump supporters.
Mao would be proud.
And there are ticks, but you’ll have to go deep woods, I suspect, for them to find you, and there’s nothing new about that.
It means that the only ticks we need to concern ourselves with are those attached to the US government and sucking the nation dry.
