[pct-l] Teatree verses ticks

[cmkudija at earthlink.net (cmkudija@earthlink.net)]

Interesting.  Tea tree oil has a reputation for being a great antiseptic &
antifungal agent too.  John Vonhof had a bit in his latest e-zine about a
tea-tree oil -based foot lubricant.  Tried to order some but the website was
not functioning properly (not John's but the vendor's, a dermatologist in
Beverly Hills).

Paul Mitchell Co. (hair product manufacturer) makes a nice tea-tree oil
based shampoo - good after a day of trail maintenance!  It gets the goo
out...

Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached its top.  Then
you will know how low it was.

Here in Washington , forest service advices employees to use shampoo with
tea tree oil to reduce chances of picking up ticks during their outings.
