Where did you surf today ?

[Drailed]

Deadset I reckon they catch one, gut the cnut and drag it up and down the coast bleeding out.

[tootr]

What I find interesting is the Researchers admit they never had a handle on GWS numbers, and admit they still don't.

[Drailed]

They shoulda talked to Steve, fair dinkum that blokes in the water everyday.

[Cranked]

I hear shark nets can be very effective.

Catalyst had a piece on Ticks, specifically on preventing tick anaphylaxis.

Dr Jonica Newby
So are you saying that tick anaphylaxis could be prevented altogether if we just remove ticks the right way?

Dr Andrew Ratchford
Yeah, if you squeeze the tick, that causes the allergen to enter the bloodstream, which causes the anaphylactic reaction. If you remove the tick correctly without squeezing it then you don't have those problems.

NARRATION
Unfortunately most of us instinctively do the wrong thing. So you have a tick. How should you remove it?

Dr Jonica Newby
Here's my tick. Now this is what most of us will do - we'll either scratch it off or reach for the household tweezers. Now this is precisely the worst thing you can do. As you remove the tick, you squeeze it and all its contents go straight into your bloodstream.

Assoc Professor Sheryl van Nunen
What they need to know is household tweezers are tick squeezers.

Dr Jonica Newby
So what should you do? Well, you should go to the chemist and buy a spray containing ether. So something like Wart Off, or Medi Freeze Skin Tag Remover. Place the nozzle conveniently over the tick and spray. Feels cold - freeze the tick, and wait about ten minutes for the tick to die. Once it's dead, you can just brush it off.

Assoc Professor Sheryl van Nunen
'Freeze it, don't squeeze it', would be our advice.

NARRATION
So that will kill the adults. But what about the tiny ticks? The little larvae or nymphs? Now these are my little larval ticks and for these I'm gonna use a cream containing permethrin. Now this is basically the same kind of cream as you get for scabies. Just rub that in. The ticks will all die and soon you'll be able to just rub them off.

Dr Andrew Ratchford
We dab them. Don't grab them.

[Davros]

3 tagged in less than 3 hours.

Cue: some dickhead from the city telling us great whites are still endangered and uncommon.

And he would have lived in the city in some trendy terrace and prolly never been past a Bondi cafe
