I spray permethrin on my hunting clothes and also spray my dog with a topical before each hunt. We have ticks all year long in Connecticut and I have seen them on deer in December. Long snowy winters actually protect the little fuggers so cold and limited snow will help keep numbers in check. I don’t seem to attract them on myself maybe its all the garlic I eat. But I have been tested and so far no Lyme.
