    I think your suggestions are spot on! I recently was diagnosed with exposure to Lyme disease, and, it seems, not surprisingly because, honestly, I was not aware of the risk in my yard and garden and was doing nothing to protect myself. After being diagnosed, though, and being currently on a course of antibiotics, I have become very fearful and have not spent time in my yard and garden for two weeks. Being so fearful really annoys me, and I have been looking for commonsense answers to allay my fears. I bought some permethrin but am reluctant to use it, as I have two indoor pet cats. This post gives me confidence that by taking the right precautions, and then making a complete check afterwards, I can get back to working safely in the yard and garden if I am vigilant. Thank you very much!
