Oh yeah, poison plants and skeeters, I forgot. I think you should be out working in your bee keeper suit!

Wasps, chiggers, and Fahr ants are a concern along with the Burn of the sun!!......

I'll chime in to say I despise seed ticks. They are awful this year.

I haven't seen seed ticks in many, many years. I attribute that to Fahr Aints.

Found a seed tick on DS last week. Bit him four times. Took him to the dr today for congestion/drainage and mentioned the tick bites that still look bad. He put him on an antibiotic that covers the pneumonia/bronchitis that was starting and Lyme disease since we aren’t sure how long it was on him (could have been almost 24 hours.) NOT a fan of ticks!!

Ticks are supposedly real bad here but I think I've seen a total of 3 in the time I've lived here. 
Not complaining mind you... But the mosquitoes, deer flies, horse flies, fire ants, hornets and red wasps are a constant issue.

So I'm sitting here listening to the occasional very loud blast of thunder to my N-NE. Over the past several days, I've had storms all around me but no rain here... Just a few scattered drips/drops. Seems this one will miss me as well. Just checked the radar and it seems to be lining up north-south, just to the east of me. I'm all out of goat milk and the goats are on milk withdrawal for worming... I think tomorrow I'm going to give all but the youngest their CD&T booster (a few days early of 5 weeks) and then band the boys to be banded.

I don’t think you’ve been in Texas long enough. I don’t even live there and even I know that they are Fahr ants!!!

Tsk tsk @Wehner Homestead, they aren't fahr ants, they are fahr aints! I've been schooled
Sorry you aren't getting rain Joe. Seems just like winter, some get no precipitation and others get way too much.
