Tick season is all year long…but they just can’t stay away from leafy piles so for many of us that means extra precautions in fall. Here are a few tips for enjoying the great outdoors whether gardening, fishing, hunting, camping or just walking your dog!

What is an easy way to protect my outdoor living space from ticks? Did you know that a very common way for tick transmission in your yard is through “hitching rides” with mice? Mice carry an abundance of ticks around your grass, shrubs, leaves, wood piles, mulch, rock walls and flower beds.

This product should ALWAYS be on hand, no matter where you live. This Permethrin spray is a miracle against ticks, chiggers, mosquitoes, and Zika virus. In fact, it can be applied to clothing and will be active through 6 washes! It is the same as 1005 DEET and is completely odorless (nice for hunters).
