Something to keep in mind while doing spring yard work! Wrapping tape sticky side out around the ankles seems to work pretty good for catching ticks.

Only when they are crawling up from below your ankles or just reaching out to hitch on you at that tape wrap level. You can also use a tape style lint brush all over your clothes to grab the all the buggers too.
Ima big fan of Sawyer and Ranger Ready insecticides.
@thereg001 Nope, will never do pesticides - 100% against them sorry
@thereg001 This is the reason I am 100% against pesticides... If it can kill a dog it can kill wildlife

@duglop I follow what your concern is. I don't use weed killer or pesticides on my lawn either. Cuz pets and wildlife.
But I do use permethrin and Picaridin on me and my outdoor riding gear for ticks and mosqitos mainly.
