The most ticks I found on my german shepherd last year in one day was 27. This year the dog has had a 44 tick day, and just a few days ago the dog had a 93 tick day. We roam the woods and the dog covers so much ground that she acts as a tick-magnet.

Hey, it isn't only Maine that's having a tick problem this year.
We in PA (at least SE PA) have always had ticks, but it's like a plague this year.
In all my life, you usually only find one tick on you, and only occasionally, and later in the
year than this. Every night, we're doing a 'tick check' on each other and the
children. Every night we've found at least one tick, and on one night one boy
had 3 and on another night one had 2. None had gotten embedded yet.
I'm guessing its from the mild winter, but I used to live in VA when I was small,
and even there I don't remember anything like this.
