[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 42120, member: 313"] Deer ticks are nothing compared to the new kids (ticks) on the block. Last year I picked up loads of Lone Star Ticks. The nymph stage Lone Star is so small that a dozen of them can dance on the back of a nymph Deer Tick. They are nearly impossible to see even with a household magnifying glass. What you will see is a rash like reaction that itches like crazy. Body searches rarely reveal these tiny little buggers. They can be viewed under the microscope if you're lucky enough to locate one. I had to sponge bathe DAILY with alcohol (head to toe) and take antibiotics. Since these ticks are relatively new to Long Island, most hunters have never even heard of them. I have reduced my preseason scouting to ZERO. As much as I love bowhunting my health is more important. VH [/QUOTE]
