The ticks are horrendous in my area. I hunted Letchworth a few times and each time had at least 3 on me one time I found 7. I don't think I got bit they were all on my clothes in the treestand except on in my hair on the way home. My buddy said the buck he shot in York had like 20 on it they were just all over his deer. To bad we couldn't crop dust the little bastards its the one thing I hate about deer hunting. Good luck trap and everyone
Yikes! Makes me kind of glad I don't hunt any more. How cold does it have to get before you stop seeing the ticks?Rg
Man I must be super lucky - I do everything in tank tops, shorts and sandals from April thru October - even when I work my gardens, scout the woods/fields in the summer and hang my stands in September. I'm more in central NY around Waterville. My neighbor across the street says the same thing - he's covered with them when he turkey hunts in spring. I wonder if I have something in me that they don't like or something - I've never even seen one on me. Whatever it is I hope it continues. Good luck to all that have been bit.
I caught this guy trying to sneak past me the other day at about 80yrds but he got caught
