Well, well, I didn’t realise we had so many experts on sheep, and the multiple and varied techniques for "taking care " of them. This being so, can someone suggest a method and/or equipment required for the removal of "sheep-ticks" from a sensitive area?

Hhhmmm!!!

Serpently!

Get a box of Sheep Crosses (cheaper over the counter than on prescription). They should counteract the Ticks, innit!

Aye,the best solutions are always the simplest. I should point out that the victim of the wee beasties is my Border Collie, not I. Honest!

John When i was 17 i came home from  a week at Butlins Filey and had a similar problem. Went to the corner shop Chemist and off the top shelf the old man gave me a Tin of "Troopers Ointment" Shave and slap on were his instructions. Innocently i showed this tin to my Mother ( Mumbling something about an "Itch". Well my old Ma. went Bananas, "Thats the stuff they gave the troops during the war" (Did not ask how she knew that) but i hid away in the bedroom with a pair of Carpet shears and the tin. All ended O.K. but lots of dirty looks from the Old Lady.

Just Google ’tick removers’, John. A vast selection and very cheap.

(I had to struggle to avoid mentioning ’ticky tape’
