There's something to bite you, stick you, just all around harm you down there.
we have no lack of things that bite , poke , sting , attack , and generally try to jack ya up , thats a fact .....
some areas are tick infested for sure , that far south there isn't big time cattle ranching like a bit further north, coupled with a huge amount of critters to feast on in that area , they might be really bad ....
years ago cattle were the big carriers in lots of places , when I was a kid you did not want to travel any paths or areas there were cattle ....
but with the introduction of so many tick control things these days , lot's of places seem void of them now ....
makes me happy for sure , me no like ticks
