My friends horse has been found to have a tick 2 days in a row, both of whom have been removed.
We are a little mystified as to how he is getting them. He is stabled at the moment as our grazing is closed. He is not being hacked out as his owner has damaged her back. His daily routine consists of exercise either on the walker, lunged or ridden in the school.
How is he getting the ticks? He is stabled on straw and I thought they jumped off a live host, and then moved on to horses within a relatively short time frame so we are a little flumoxed on this one.
Any ideas?
