Re: [Aushiker] Tick Alert Support Group

Ah Harry,
Long time ago I learnt to carry a can of SURFACE SPRAY (usually Mortein) and
spray the surface where I intended to sleep in the huts.
Not only does this protect you from fleas, sand flies,cockroaches,spiders,
or any creepy crawly, but ticks as well.
I still have the original can I bought two years ago, so I reckon a whole
can would be more then enough for an end to ender, and short circuit the
little buggers.
Regards,
Eddy.
