Guest Arcane Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I wouldn't think you will find ticks at Mt.Gambier. The climate is even cooler than in Adelaide and ticks are not present here at all really. In 25 yrs of grooming dogs I would have seen maybe 6 dogs with ticks and each & every one of them had either recently travelled north of Pt.Augusta or been in close contact with a dog that had been transported in from a tick area. If you want a clear answer phone a vet in the town and ask them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
