    My dog used to have ticks sometimes in the summer and I would take them out with a tick tweezer, put them in a piece of paper towel and I would burn it with a lighter. The tick would explode and burn and that's really the only way to get rid of those spawns of hell.

      Yea I've gotten hundreds of them on me and tried many different things and I agree it's best just to pull them off but pull easy so you can try to pull the hypostome out which is what holds them in. The less you leave in there the better off you are although I usually get a nasty bump that turns to a scab and lasts quite a while, chiggers and fleas do the same thing to me. I'm in NC and this seems to be a hotspot, I'm from Florida and have spent most of my free time in the woods and the same in NC and I've gotten way more here. Me and my wife once pulled either 62 or 63 little tiny ones off me and you can probably guess where most of them were lol.

      Riketsiosis
      Bourne Disease
      Tulameria
      2361D Riketosis
      Lupus
      Spotted fever
      Anlemisia
      if we combine the whole disease death's on each year we would get over 4 Million Death's That's more then the mosquito mostly the 2 Million is from Bourn Disease so yeah the ticks would've won if they combined this whole disease.

    I had a tick once in my ear.
    It's really hard to find until and unless you feel there's something extra thing on your body.
    Luckily I found it one day when I cleaned my ear. I found this extra thing in my ear. Ist I thought it's a skin but then I realised I never had such thing in my ear. So I pulled it hard and I was like no this ain't anything else just skin of my ear. I again pulled it little bit harder and I saw this creepy thing crawling on my finger.
    I was literally shocked that I didn't know for this long that I had it in my ear.
    And believe me it's hard to kill as well.

    I live in the South where ticks run rampant. We were always taught to burn them with a lighter. They immediately pull off and it kills them.

      No. You have to grab them by the bottom , mouth, and twist off. If you burn them, kill them, or injure them they just dig in deeper. They will die before they release. Just use a tick tweezer.
      By force The left over parts left inside will cause an infection. Then you have to manually remove the legs, mouth, etc. Nasty critters. Been bit too many times to try to burn.
      You are thinking of leaches. Those you can burn off. Bit by those too.

    The beds were riddled with bedbugs, so much so that even though my sleep is extremely sound and you are not supposed to "feel" a tick bite, I woke up every night with body full of ticks.
    I had to sleep on the floor in the hall to just avoid them.
    Even now, after years, those days still haunt me.

    I grew up in a swamp and never got bitten by a tick in my life until I moved to Pennsylvania. The danger there seemed to be focused on Lyme disease, which I never got. Then I moved to Missouri and practiced all the cool tricks I learned in PA to avoid ticks. But one got me anyway and I nearly died of Ehrlichiosis. I also got attacked by a bunch of Brown Recluse Spider babies. I thought I had a flesh-eating bacterial infection--all over my legs! It took a year to get back to normal, but all the craters healed like nothing happened. But it was absolutely horrible to live through. I don't care if DEET is hazardous. Now it's my official Missouri State Perfume! I don't harbor any boxes, newspapers, or material in my house because that's where the Brown Recluse likes to hide. When I need to go in the shed, do yard work, or go backpacking I spray all the exposed surfaces and entrances to my clothing with a dose of DEET. My clothes closet is regularly sprayed with peppermint to discourage all spiders. As for the choice between ticks and spiders I'd rather have a bear enounter!

Lyme disease mimes other diseases so it can be really hard to find. In severe cases it can last 6+ years and even cause death. My dad caught it early so we were lucky. To this day we still have know idea where or when he got bitten.

    Growing up on a farm back in the 70s. There was a ritual My family would perform in the evening just before going to bed. My brothers and I would sit around like primates going through our hair and picking ticks off of each other. Back then, we bathed once a week usually a Sunday night. But we did do a lot of swimming in creeks after working in tobacco.
