Ahem. It would appear that someone is Sick and Tired of finding live ticks floating in the toilet when she needs to use it.
(Note: We are still doing frequent tick checks of people and pets and once in a while, we do find one. Because I’m not one for squashing, I have been just pitching the ticks in the bowl and letting them wait for the next paying customer. I hate to waste a few gallons of clean, perfectly good water just to get rid of a lousy tick.).
Recently, our youngest daughter posted this request on the bathroom door.
I suspect she has deep feelings on the subject. Whaddya think?

Of all the things my grandma told me you could catch from a toilet seat…ticks didn’t make the list. However, I can understand your daughter’s objection…do they backstroke, dead-tick’s float…?
Fortunately, they cannot crawl up the bowl and actually reach the toliet seat. ICK.
Ticks float. Unless they’re full of blood, in which case, they sink. I know this is probably Too Much Information. (Unless you’re pathologically curious, like me).
Nice sign!
I just pulled two very full ticks off a dog today… ewww…
