ticks attracted to heat...

["Kimberly M. Price" <kim@plough-electric.com>]

Ticks are attracted to the heat from any warmblooded animal and will
drop from trees, cling from bushes, crawl up from the ground.....they
are everywhere!!!!

I called my Doctor about the Lymrex vaccination (against lymes disease)
and he won't even carry it!  It costs around $100. a shot, has a very
short shelf life, and two are required.  Hows that for HMO's and
preventive medicines!

Be careful out there......lyme disease is no fun and if it gets to stage
3 (in the internal organs) it can be downright deadly......

Safe riding to all

correctly!!!!)
