Hey thanks, JayB. That puts it in perspective, for sure. (Back to watching for the snakes. And taun-tauns.)

Go into the light, Zim Zam!

That chart is kind of interesting. I remember when I was living in North Idaho south of the area with a noted rize in tick activity. I remember there being tons of ticks there; definitely way more than I've ever seen around here.

Tons of ticks out here, although doesn't seem like anymore than EWash which is showing no cases of limes disease? Strange.

Yup. Number 187,926,340,879,127,489,217,498,072,134,798,012,374,897,213,89,742.

'bout the same number as Dru's post count.

Those anomalous areas of the western states are more to do with low population than fecund ticks. If you've only got 3 people in the county and one of em gets Lyme disease its a major epidemic!
