Hi suerich17
Great news the hogs are back.
As long as there aren’t too many ticks, the hog should be ok. If they were quite big they will likely drop off soon. But the main problem is if they lay eggs in the hog house – which could lead to a lot more being picked up there later on. So if he is no longer sleeping in the hog house, I would be inclined to clean it out and use boiling water to make sure there aren’t any tick or other parasite eggs hiding in the joins. But make sure the hog has vacated i.e. not just gone out for the night. If you have a hog feeding box, you might want to clean that out, too.
