Guys. Just a friendly reminder to spray for ticks and get some permethrin for your clothes! I was feeling real bad last summer. Real bad! Scary bad! Went and had full blood panel pulled and I tested positive for Rocky Mountain Spotted fever. Thank goodness for antibiotics!

Been getting tick bits all my life but the wrong one finally latched on. Seems like ticks are more prevalent than they were 30 years ago. Spray down when hitting the turkey woods this spring!

Lymes or Rocky Mountain. Both are better than Alpha Gal. It was first found in 2002. You get it from tick bites and it causes you to be allergic to red meat and pork.

Been waiting for the alpha gal. Heard it can sneak up on you after the RMSF.

My fiancé got the alpha gal during the 2021/2022 deer season - figured it out right after we bought half a cow and had been eating on it pretty good. She was COVERED in hive like marks. Almost looked like poison ivy. Probably spent $3k on doctors visits before an allergist made the proper diagnosis.

Went away from red meat for a while, eased back in one type at a time. Beef gave her the most trouble but 12 months later and she is good. Had a couple fat ribeyes for dinner tonight. Venison gave her the least reaction so we switched to that primarily.

Was it a lone star tick? If not i wouldn't be worried about the allergy. I've had the alpha gal long before it got "popular" WELL before they figured out a name for it, Had the Lyme to unfortunately 😕

Many outdoorsmen in the northeast no longer wear camo. They wear a tan color so they can inspect themselves and pick off the many ticks that are accumulated walking through the woods.
They are ridiculous in PA over the past several years. Everybody has a friend or family member who has contracted Lymes up there.

Have the ticks up there developed an immuity to permethrin?

Sprayed all my turkey clothes down with Sawyers last night…..I’m not taking chances on ticks and it seems to help with skeeters too

I don't think so. (yet) It's just that serious if you get Lymes. I use Permethrin. Is it a silver bullet ? I don't know. Are those who contract it careless ? Don't know that either.

Found a tick latched on to me in late January or first of February. That's the earliest I've ever found one. I use Top Secret Bio Shield laundry detergent
To wash my clothes in, if I can find it. Good stuff. If I can't find it I use Sawyers.

Sprayed all of my turkey camo with Sawyers on Tuesday. I got bit about 5years ago near the end of season and was some kind of sick a few days later. Dr put me on 3-4wks of Doxycycline and all has seemed well since.
