I use the pen type. Press the button in the top and a snare comes out of the tip. Slowly put it over the tick. Let the snare tighten and twist out. Worked every time. we have a different one for the dog. They work great.

Hi Karate.

WTF has that got to do with anything?

There or there abouts. not sure what bar was in the 661. There wasn’t much left though.

We have loads here in Norway. My dog has had the medicine and whenever they latch on they die. We often find multiple ones in her fur that are still alive. I had one latch on a couple of weeks ago. Little bugger would not let go. Even when using a tick remover pen. I must have caught it early as I didn’t even have a red mark where it bit let alone a bullseye. Had a bullseye a couple of years ago and the medical centre said just to draw a line round it and if it got larger then come in for Antibiotics. It went away in a day or so so never got the AB’s.

He will need a big saw though. i flopped the barrel of the stem with a 661.

Our thoughts exactly but he seemed to think he was the man for the job. A pensioner as well. Good luck to him, he will need it. My mate also took down 4 other pine’s and a twin stemmed birch for the old boy to clear.

which image?

My mate lives in Finland. His son was bitten by a tick when he was about 10 whilst at their summer cabin. it went undiagnosed until Dylan (the son) started having seizures and describing what my friend said sounded like LSD trips. Visuals and fractals. Medical team in Finland refused to accept it was Limes and said he had epilepsy. Mainly because they never described a bullseye etc and it was a few months later. Dylan ended up in a wheel chair and almost went blind and missed nearly a year from school. A doctor in the UK diagnosed it as Limes but his medical insurance wouldn’t pick up the bill for treatment as the Finns wouldn’t confirm it was Limes. Many Euro’s later and lots of private treatment he made a recovery but still suffered from the time from school. He is 19 now and about to go into the Finnish Army for his national service. Limes can be serious if undetected and untreated.

Another day and another sticky Fat Pine. Drop and leave, home owner is going to clear up. Yeah good luck with that. Speed lined a few of the back and side limbs off that were over the uninsulated cables. Two or three logs dropped and then fell the stick over with the 661.

That’s kind of my point.

Yes I know but the customer don’t want the jobs to go ahead until the whittle birdies have finished nesting 😄

I just knee them when they jump or just walk into them. usually they get the memo. i hear you though. I have worked a lot with my dog to stop her jumping up. There are still a couple of my sons friends she still jumps up on.

I have about 4 large jobs on hold at the moment. Birds nesting. The annoying thing is they are magpies, crows and pigeons. what would be considered a pest in the Uk even has hunting seasons here. In the UK I would call a halt in a job if a songbird nest was involved. Never lost any sleep relocated a pigeon or Magpies though.

Yesterdays job was a bit of a slog in the heat and fighting sap. Large pine to remove and then another over solar panels and decking. Rigged and free falled the larger tree and then used that as a rigging point to swing everythin away from house. No before picture as to busy. All the logs on the floor were snatched from the larger pine. Had one rodeo moment and a few smoking ropes. Back this morning to fell the stick and log up for firewood. IMG_0815.mov
