Tip: If you slather a tick buried deep in your skin with Vicks or vaseline, it has to back its head out to breathe, so you can easily nab it in a hanky and flush it.
Normally I can relax in the woods,
Today flies and mosquitoes are annoying me.
I slap them off my leg,
And blow them off my shoulder.
I flick a green winged one off my chair,
Can feel something crawling slowly
Toward my knee
I forgot to wear Vicks
Which bugs detest.
A tick?
I cannot wait to see.
