It did me anyway:

Bit By A Tick On The Dick....

Our pond is finally drying up and I saw a bunch of pollywogs in tiny puddles, seeing how I will be filling the pond in, I didn't want to kill them, so I scooped them up.
I took them down to the creek and released them, that was when I picked up my scochi chingo (little friend).
I came up and last night felt like I got kicked in the groin, or rather got it caught in a car door.
It had just bitten me within the last hour I assume, but it left quite a little hole and after I removed it, I had a a bump the size of 4 quarters stacked up.

Today all is good, but God I hate those little critters.
That is the third tick bite in the last 20+ years living up here, not bad when you consider the dogs come back with dozens all the time.

Boyso if there's one bug next to cockroaches and spiders it's tick's... I hate ticks....

That and a mosquito in your bedroom at night that keeps buzzing your ear about every ten minutes.
Just the thought of it makes me itch. :))

But something about a tick bite that really urks me is is, once it's removed, it feels just like a gun shot.
It damages the tissue for about 4" all around and bruises it real bad.

The tick was bad...watching him pour peroxide over the spot after he removed it made me cringe.  :o :o   I offered to put a bandage on it but he said no.  Can't understand why... ::) :D
