If you haven’t gotten your yearly flea and tick medicine this is your reminder:)! Mine has had his and still brought this back. Just got this little friend from the ardagh bluffs trail! I know ticks are a regular occurrence but double check your pets and enjoy your hikes without any pesky visitors!
Adding that it is a “deer tick” or black legged tick, which are the ones that can spread Lyme disease, so there is reason to check!
