We have *something* that shows up periodically in the pastures that 
cause the same type of bites (and they are bites, not rain rot). 
Whatever it is appears to stay at the "grass line" (or, at the weed line 
at this point ... too much rain and now we need a bush hog) because the 
appearance doesn't show much above that line.

Same treatment ... plus extra spray on the legs and lower body for a few 
days or a week.

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot 
survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, 
for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves 
amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through 
all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the 
traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his 
victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the 
baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a 
nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the 
pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no 
longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”
