ticks?
after a lifetime in Fl, my experience is that a walk in the woods where you brush against plants in certain seasons is highly likely to result in ticks on you and dog, which have to be removed and destroyed. Have never encountered a home infestation.
I have pine mulch and after one year and one replacement of mulch have not seen any ticks. I'd be interested to hear about it if anyone has had ticks in their mulch, as it is certainly not impossible.
