Nothing vulgar, I assure you. Just trapped 3 pigs, had to duck-walk into the trap to pull them out (I'm done with small, close-topped traps...by the by), and while I was hauling them off to dump them, thinking I'd really made a dent in the population, I see a huge sounder, all black. I get out of the UTV and make a "hail Mary" shot, 'heard a "Whap!", but, since I started to feel little critters bounce around on my neck, I decided not to take the time to follow up the shot. Dump pigs, haul-arse back the to the house, get into my birthday suit on the back porch (and tie the clothes, tightly, in a garbage bag and leave on said porch) and hot-foot it into the shower with the hottest water I can stand. And, call the wife on my way back home to have her pickup some delousing shampoo. (I Googled it. ) Another hot shower and, there's now a 2nd bottle of lice shampoo at the ranch. The excrement I get into.

This...after getting tick fever from my first trip out to this new ranch a little while ago. The War on Parasite Bugs is ON Baby!!! (You should see what I do to my navel with Repel. )

I use the black ones you can get them at Tractor Supply. Always have them in my pack or in the truck.

. . . . I used to think was sissy but now may have some merit.
