     with a night scope and a flash bang of some kind   
   that could be fun.  mini-tank with big bore spark   
   shooting noise maker.  :)   
      
     in the end though a fence would be cheaper and   
   nice to keep the ticks away.  we've already found   
   two deer ticks this year (not by them biting us)   
   in the house brought in on clothes after working   
   in areas where they come through the yard.  i   
   wrap the lil buggers in a bit of toilet paper   
   and then chop them with scissors to make sure   
   they are dead.  they're very hard to kill.   
      
     hunting them in the fall would be good if i   
   could bring myself to do it, but i'm not that   
   hungry yet.
