Whenever I think about ticks I think about Lyme Disease. My next door neighbor was diagnosed with Lyme 3 years ago. She believes she encountered the tick at the cabin she and her husband own in Maine. In her case, so far, the symptoms have been bad but not devastating. For others, it's much worse.
Taking a few precautions can help prevent a great day in the woods from destroying your life.
