You need a cement pad that can be treated around with anti tick stuff. I don't think they would come out of the grass up on a cement pad.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

yup

Yikes ...

Get with Robert about finding a way to stop the ticks. I bet he would be glad to help with that project.

I would think, Larry, she would be okay if she even just treated the porch and an area all around it with tick granules. Maybe an area about 30' on all sides. That stuff works good. We had a bad year for ticks a couple of years ago and did not have enough chickens to keep them down. It works good.

Granny, is the grass grown up around your house?
