I like your style……You can get through a magnetometer with that one.
I had the marshals at the federal courthouse in Miami check me with a Stellite 6K knife that Kit Carson made for me. Made it through the magnetometer, but the wand picked it up. (It wall all titanium frame and hardware, with carbon fiber and Stellite 6K.)I like your style……![]()
That's pretty freaking cool!This is it...

I get to an extent they don't want to overprescribe antibiotics. I called my local urgent care to inquire about precautionary antibiotics for the one I pulled off. She informed me they don't prescribe them unless the tick had been attached for 36 hours.
I always thought 24 hours was the general rule of thumb as far as lyme transfer and I know the one I had wasn't on for more than 12 or so. It hadn't begun to really embed and I check myself regularly while in the woods and for a couple hours after I've exited. Still think I would've felt a little easier getting a round of doxy just in case...lyme isn't one I want to fafo with.
I knew a family down in South FL that was devastated by it.You don’t want mess with Lyme. Doxy isn’t common enough to build a resistance to. But the results of Lyme can become dramatic if untreated, especially if too late.
You can also save the tick and send it in to tickreport and they'll check to see if it has Lyme.I get to an extent they don't want to overprescribe antibiotics.

I found a tick on me almost a day later one time and had a slight panic attack. It was engorged and everything you want to avoid seeing. When searching for symptoms, etc. their site came up. I sent in the offending tick and got the results by email back in 2 days (negative).Good to know.

Never knew you could send in a deer tick. I just saved then in Alcohol as proof.I found a tick on me almost a day later one time and had a slight panic attack.

The problem is that the bullseye doesn't appear for everyone.The bullseye red circle was confirmation enough I presumed.
For those folks who live/play in areas high with lyme disease (or other issues), the Wellness Company sells kits with different antibiotics (including doxy). It is legit, and you fill out a history and speak with a doctor on the phone prior to meds being sent. Cheaper than a visit to urgent care, and nice to have medications while traveling or away from home.I found a tick on me almost a day later one time and had a slight panic attack.
