    I think your suggestions are spot on! I recently was diagnosed with exposure to Lyme disease, and, it seems, not surprisingly because, honestly, I was not aware of the risk in my yard and garden and was doing nothing to protect myself. After being diagnosed, though, and being currently on a course of antibiotics, I have become very fearful and have not spent time in my yard and garden for two weeks. Being so fearful really annoys me, and I have been looking for commonsense answers to allay my fears. I bought some permethrin but am reluctant to use it, as I have two indoor pet cats. This post gives me confidence that by taking the right precautions, and then making a complete check afterwards, I can get back to working safely in the yard and garden if I am vigilant. Thank you very much!

    One thing you didn't mention that trekking poles are handy for...snakes. Out here in the west, if you do a lot of hiking, you will encounter a rattlesnake on the trail. I've used mine a couple times to move the snake off the trail. It keeps you at a safe distance from the snake. Of course, if it is safe, step off the trail and give the snake a wide berth. But sometimes if there is a steep drop-off, you have to either move the snake or turn around. I have used my trekking pole by pushing the tip under the snake and then flipping the snake off the side of the trail. This helps hikers that follow behind you. I hate killing snakes as they help control the insect population.
