[RC] RC: Flies and Ticks - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Ruth Abair shakesbearides@xxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

RideCampers,

FYI. Last year my grey arab was so allergic to tick bites I had to give him 
allergy medicine. I ended up giving him a shot of Iver(Ivo)mec for cattle - 
1mL/1cc per 100lb body weight - and it worked like a charm. No more bites. The 
ticks are back with a vengeance this year - looks like I'll have to do it 
again. Funny thing though, the ticks aren't bothering my brown burro! Ruth

===========================================================You don't have to be 
a 100-mile rider or a multi-day rider to be an
endurance rider, but if you want to experience the finest challenges our
sport has to offer, you need to do both of those.
