Anyone out there with a good natural repellent for ticks? I have boys that love to hike and play in the woods.

I just found one crawling on my forehead! Now I feel like they are all over me. I hate ticks. I got rid of all my guineas so now I guess we'll be overtaken by the nasty little things. I found one on my Nubian's ear the other day. I will have to try the orange il.

Orange Oil - thanks. I'll go in search of it the next time I go to town. I'll try anything to elude those nasty little things! And you do feel like once you find one - that they are crawl all over you for hours later!

Forget buns of steel, I'd rather have buns of cinnamon!
