Don’t know if anyone else saw this in the AJC this week, but the Georgia Poison Center is doing a tick check in order to learn if the ticks are carrying diseases. They want anyone who finds an attached tick to contact them so they can arrange to have the tick mailed to them – I’m not making this up! Anyway, if anyone wants to participate, call the Georgia Poison Center at 404-616-9000 or 1-800-222-1222.

I saw it too, but forgot to post it. Glad you did.
It's legit.

I saw that also. Do you reckon they'd send an eighteen wheeler to pick up the thirteen pound ones that we have down here?
