“permethrin“ is the stuff that kills ticks. My brother works outside and got Lyme disease. It was awful so his crew wear permethrin soaked clothing. I think they buy it pre treated.

I found two deer ticks (one attached) last fall. I always wear long pants and they’d just climb up till past my waist. They’re quite small.

They gave me one dose of antibiotics as a preventative. I worry about our dog. She got the vaccine and has some medicine that kills then, but I still found three on her.
