Got so bad around here I mixed up some permathrin (2.5 %) in a garden sprayer and sprayed the whole yard. Had to keep the dog out of the grass for a few days but now he is running around the yard and have not seen any new bites on him or me.
I keep a set of overalls hanging that is treated with permathrin and a longsleeve shirt along with rubber boots for when I go into the woods. As long as I do this I do not get visited by the devils offspring.
