Here is a question of the day for ya, now that it is getting warmer outside. You know how the vet prescribes flea and tick medicine to give our pets so that if a tick bites, it will immediately die? Well the question is, why is there not something similar for human use?

Okay, well I did some researching and found this article:
Apparently there is currently a pill just like this, that kills ticks on humans for up to 30 days. So far this pill has only been in a small human trial, but it is in the works. This is such exciting news.
The real question is this: If and when this pill becomes available, will you take it? It will take years of human use before we could know any true side effects.
But, with that being said, knowing that there could be unknown harmful side effects to the tick medication, which is worse? Lyme Disease? Any other tick-born-illness? Or the potential side effect?
Personally, I think I would take the pill. Imagine being able to take a walk in the woods without a care in the world if ticks get on you. To me that sounds like a dream.
I would love to hear your opinion about the tick pill for humans.
