[quote=sdcellar]Seriously though, congratulations on the house, I just mentioned the tick thing because I was so danged surprised. You’ll probably never even see one.[/quote]
Actually, I got a tick once, too. I’ve been more careful since then and haven’t gotten another one. Although I’m always open to ideas for avoiding them. I read that they hang in the tall grass and then hitchhike on your foot/leg when you walk through the grass. So, among other precautions, I avoid the tall grass when possible.
Flu, I’ve heard coyotes in the canyons lots of times. It seems like less often recently, though. I’ve also seen deer, rabbits, mice, birds, gophers and a whole food chain worth of wildlife out there. I even heard what I’m pretty sure was a bobcat once.
