Check me for ticks? (Brooklyn Heights)
I’ve thought about this and it’s not as weird as it sounds. I go upstate most weekends and the tick population has been huge. Last week I found 3 ticks on my body. I don’t have anyone I feel comfortable asking to check me thoroughly so what is a person to do? My eyesight isn’t the greatest and I’m somewhat hairy, complicating the task from my own perspective.
Perhaps there is someone in a medically related field, or studying, who is not especially squeamish about doing examinations involving nudity? Or just open to it? It doesn’t have to be a big deal, but it does have to be done seriously. A careful full body check and removal of any ticks that are found. I have gloves and a little removal tool. It’s important to find attached ticks within 24-48 hours, so this would best take place on Sunday evenings or Mondays, hopefully on a regular basis. I’m located near Borough Hall.
I’m absolutely willing to pay, but as far-fetched as it sounds I’m wondering whether I might find someone in Activities rather than posting this as a job! It’s quite a dilemma, figuring out how to find these little suckers in places you can’t see. Yeah, could try to use a mirror or smartphone, but not ideal.
If someone is in the same predicament I would be willing to reciprocate. Thanks for reading and considering. Oh yeah, I’m a middle aged, healthy, average looking guy.
