I skinned and butchered a deer on Saturday. As I was cleaning up after I got the meat in the coolers, and the cape/skelton taken care of, I found two deer ticks on me. In all my 63 years of being outside, and picking hundreds of wood ticks off my body, I had never ever before seen a deer tick. Geeze they are small. I've had several friends and relatives get Lime disease -- probably all got it from deer ticks. So, just a thought about cleaning up after dealing with a deer hide.
