Have your say
Not-so-welcome wildlife
In regard to the letter sent in relating to ticks in long grass (Have Your Say, August issue), myself and my husband have also encountered a problem with ticks in the garden. I planted large areas of the garden this year to encourage more wildlife but have now decided to reduce any areas of long grass near to walkways.
We were horrified to find ticks attached to our shoulders and waists after spending time in the garden and hope they don’t prove to be infected with Lyme disease.
