Ticks like to stay in the grass until hitching a ride on some poor warm-blooded animal. They don’t jump out of trees so I don’t see how hats are going to help.
ticks are no joke. a month ago I got anaplasmosis. The symptoms are similar to Covid-19 so there was a scare there and a delay in real treatment waiting for testing. Plus no doctor wanted to touch me with a 10 ft poll when I have a fever aches chills etc even with a negative test result. Most sick I’ve been in my life. Next time I’m wearing 2 hats one forward one backward to really confuse them buggers.
If they really cared about fleas, ticks, chiggers, etc., the best thing to do is wear long pants, socks, and shoes and tuck the pants into the socks. It’s still not impossible to get something wearing pants tucked into socks and shoes but it is a lot less likely. Instead they are all wearing shorts….

That’s a good strategy, Dill. Start with outwitting the ticks, and work your way up.

I wonder if Ranger Dan got a ranger secret decoding ring as well as new ranger shoes?

The creepy new kid looks so small compared to Alice, Dill, and Buckethead Kevin.

Sounds like it’s going to be a short hike.

You should never go hiking in NEW Ranger Shoes, Ranger Dan!
I did a bit of hiking Back In the Day, and new shoes were the last thing I’d want to wear!
