It seems quite an expensive solution to tick removal but Freeze Off products seem to be getting good comment.

I had a different kind of Eye Test today --- it being a manky day.
I decided to tie a few flees. But first had to make a few items.
Step one --strip a few individual fibres from a cock pheasant tail feather.
Step two --- tie Two Knots in each fibre to make "legs with joints". This requires patience, dexterity and decent close up eyesight --- not properties I have in abundance.
Then do it again and again and again --
Step three --- take six legs and use them to create each caricature of a Daddy Long Legs.
Step four --- well, you can guess that.

Predictably the Scottish outdoor community are no happy.
But --- how's this for a "politician"
2nd June (from a BBC article,).
SMR Chairman Damon Powell said: "We are also aware how deeply frustrating it is when everyone who is making such sacrifices see people openly flouting the guidance. We are pleased to see the police taking action against such individuals."
4th June ( from a BBC article).
"
Hillwalkers and climbers should not be concerned about being penalised if they call 999 for help, Scottish Mountain Rescue (SMR) has said.
SMR chairman Damon Powell said mountain rescue assistance would be provided "without cost and without judgement" if people were in difficulties."
