Ticks

My old dad always used iodine on the tick, it caused the tick to shrivel up and die and then head and body could be brushed off the animal.
My wife had Lyme disease and was not diagnosed for several years, we think she may have caught it in Singapore or Thailand when we were on holiday, it took over 2 years of treatments with antibiotics and various other homeopathic treatments to get rid of it. She suffered from sever fatigue for years, still suffers some with it, but I think the current fatigue is Covid related, she had it twice despite being vaccinated.
