I side with the lake on almost every set of circumstances, but my personal health and safety comes first in this case.

Anyways...I'm going to try to treat around my gardens where I spend a lot of time. Having to fuss about ticks has really zapped some of the enjoyment out of it.

Whatever you do, don't type ticks into google and read too much. Some of the horror stories and stuff I've learned has only served to leave me rather paranoid and waiting for winter.
