I was so eagle-eyed one year when the ticks were really bad (hubs keeps them at bay now) that I could spot them 10 feet away crawling on our hardwood floor. I was in the vet's office and went into a room where one tech just got done mopping the floor and saw one crawling on the floor as the vet walked in. Told him to stand still and got the booger with a paper towel. He took us to another room and had the guy reclean the exam room again. Made him change the water and solution first. I think I was just so anal about it, I was seeing them everywhere.
