Tick Checks: Do periodic tick checks (on yourself, children and pets) and carefully remove any found. Wear light colored clothing so ticks are easier to find.
Outdoor Pursuits: When on a hike, bike ride, or walk, try to remain in the center of the trail in order to minimize your exposure. Remember: Ticks cannot fly; they crawl. Avoid sitting directly on the ground, woodpiles, or fallen logs—all areas where ticks love to live.
Personal Protection: Wear tick repellent clothing. Insect Shield repellent apparel is EPA registered to repel ticks, as well as a variety of other pesky and potentially dangerous insects. The repellency is odorless, invisible and long lasting. Insect Shield apparel is available for adults, kids, and even your dog!
