They creep. They crawl. They sting. They bite. But ticks, termites, horseflies and hornets are being hunted in York County by thousands of children and their parents. After finding the millipede at Gifford Pinchot State Park near Lewisberry, Karen Ness, her two sons, her mother and her sons' friend were taking time to munch some snacks before hitting the trail again to search for a bee and a tick. All of the bugs -- or rather, stamps for the bugs -- can be found in 30 letterboxes hidden in York's 23 state, county and municipal parks.
