You seem the farthest you can get from being a cruel person in the least. I am always hesitant to speak up on how I feel on this type of thing because it might seem like I'm being contrary or scolding to others but I don't mean to be . It's just something I can't help in me, I am so sensitive about these things and I actually wish I had a thicker skin about it.

I remember as a kid I came upon some other kids beating on a grasshopper with a stick until it could barely move and was in pretty bad shape and I just burst into horrified tears. I knew well how destructive hoppers can be (to crops and such) but it horrified me that people could make something suffer and get enjoyment from it. The tick thing is different than this because you are killing it for a very good reason for the defense of people and pet alike. It's just when someone says they enjoy the killing of it I can't relate, it just always bothers me to some degree.

Again I wish it wouldn't. I'm just hypersensitive

Where do you people live where there aren't any ticks? I want to move there! We use frontline on our dogs to protect against them - unfortunately though it just kills the tick as soon as it bites - so you find dead ticks in your bed and furniture - pretty gross! But at least we don't have to pick them off them. Poor Cocoa still has scars from where we took ticks off her.

Oh, and deer ticks are the worst! They're so small, they look like a speck of dirt (very hard to find on furry dogs!), and they spred lyme disease - which Daphne got 2 years ago.

Grrr, I wish there was no such thing as ticks!
