That Clarksville site is a really good radiator. Wonder if the new Lisbon location will be similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurmont and Westminster are wide open and mix well. I'm excited to see what data we get from there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Did you guys up north of me notice a massive drop-off in ticks during the dry spell? There were armies of ticks everywhere during the 2 months of Florida soup and over the last 4-6 weeks it's almost like they disappeared. Haven't seen a single one on our dog in a month after being a tick magnet for the 2 previous. We treat him but the ticks still get all over him before dying. Not a single one in weeks seems really odd. Of course I hope every tick on the planet dies yesterday but this cycle seems weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
