ORIGINAL: nohalo I absolutely love to go "shroomin", but the last couple of years I have gotten a terrible reaction to tick bites. I have scars from the little buggers. I've duct taped the legs of my jeans, used good bug repellant - they are just thick around here. Anyone have any good advice on tick repellant. I swear, I'm about to use some of the dog's Frontline! Forget the frontline it is not a repellent , tick still needs to make contact with the wearer the chemicals in the frontline then attacks the ticks nervous system which results in them dying within 48 hours, the reason it works to prevent diseases is because a tick needs to feed for 36 hours on the same host inorder to pass disease such as lyme, babesia, ehrlichia, RSMF etc
