Tick ... tick ... tick

I've been alerting everyone I know that ticks seem to be rampant this year. For six days straight I found one each day crawling up my jeans pant leg -- and this after several summers where I saw none at all. Fortunately these were the "big" and easy-to-spot kind, not those insidious deer ticks. I keep a roll of Scotch tape on hand and just seal them up.
I know you're more accustomed to hearing me gripe about those foul stink bugs, but I simply haven't seen any. (Update: Not two minutes after I saved this item, I found another tick crawling up my right leg. After I finished the next item, there was one on my left arm. Honestly!)
