Well, after pulling off the first tick of the season from my little 3 year old, I really wish they had a product like that for us!!

I found two on me yesterday. They are annoying but I don't think I would use human frontline even if they made it!!! Haha.

I think I read somewhere that ticks don't like lavender.

My husband had Lyme disease so I would use something.

I had Lyme disease about 7 years ago but I still wouldn't. Also I use lavender shampoo, soap and deoderant and still got two. Just have to check and double check this time of year and avoid letting the dogs in.

After crawling under equipment all day and being in the woods, it's not unusual for my husband to come home with 20+ ticks. Seed ticks are the worst.
