Then when it gets hotter & drier, it's 'flea' season. The jiggers need the drier weather also. I hate them the most — they get so 'personal'. As yuky as ticks are & unless they're the deer ticks (very, very tiny) which carry lyme disease, they're the most non-event of the bug bites for people & pets. At least they don't multiply exponentially like fleas!<br /><br />We just 'escaped' to full timing with 2 cats (& a dog), so I'm wondering how you manage to let your cats loose outside. I don't trust mine yet without a lease on them.<br /><br /> ~~ Glenda ~~Glenda Lainehttp://www.CasitaEscapes.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9062337474734435253.post-31744977899269309152011-05-30T06:59:04.976-07:002011-05-30T06:59:04.976-07:00Ticks & Chiggers -- both are HORRIBLE!
