Seed ticks are the second worst for me. Chiggers are my nemesis. They absolutely love me. I get into a batch or two a year. I have permanent scars on my legs from scratching them.

What gets me is nobody hunts squirrels anymore and your right no limit wouldn’t matter but it’s been 5 my whole life 61 years

At 73 6 was fine with me. 10 ok no limit as you say who cares. No one hunt squirrels. When I’m out never see a squirrel hunter and hunt public land most the time. Might see one or two opening day. In 70s my vet friend from west plans Mo saved parts from squirrels for biogist at Columbia research and the following. Occurred. For a few years the season did not open till August 1. I think. Don’t really remember all the details but it sure messed up our annual squirrel hunt in the National park by west plains. We still killed enough young ones to barbecue but swimming the Ozark streams were used to cool off in the heat. It was a cool hunt. 5 college kids from around the state and one from out of state we did it for years till other responsibilities broke it up

Heading out with my cousin in the morning then hit the creeks fishing a bit . I don’t know of one young person that squirrel hunts and the older ones can’t hack it anymore

Squirrel hunting is my sons thing. He loves it.. we had a dog but sold him because my work schedule was all over the place and I wasn't doing him any good sitting in the pen. Cameron was not happy about selling his Squirrel dog. Now I changed jobs alot more free time, looking at getting another dog. I know a guy that had a female and just got a young male. He plans on breeding, I told him let me know I would be interested. I helped the guy get a job, so maybe he can cut me a break lol... we always killed more sneaking through the woods and stalking, but I love to watch a dog work and tree.

And, our season is one of the longest in the country!

Completely the opposite here. You see fox squirrels in town or open piney woods. But those cat squirrels have pretty much taken over most places. We do get a few fox squirrels in the hardwood swamps but they don't like thick woods at all.
