We are generally loaded with them down here this time of year as well. Probably will be real bad since we haven't had any cold weather.

Anyone field tested these products? I have found permethrin mostly effective, this advertising and their reviews claim the ElimiTick clothing effective for repelling mosquitoes and black flies also, just wondering if anyone has tried it http://www.gamehide.com/Elimitick_Tick_Repellent_Clothing_s/138.htm

We give these away at work.

You can find them at pet stores and most vets have them in stock too.  Work like a charm on you and your pets.

Permethrin!!!
Use it on your hunting clothes!!!  They are bad this year.. A veterinarian told me to use 85% listerine
and 15% water in a spray bottle,mix-up.. spray your clothes , dog..etc...It will stop the tick from biting you..
It does not kill the tick... *wha*

Been cutting wood for the last month TICKS everwere. I got a pair of upland briar pants from L.L. Bean with tick cuffs they work wonders especially with a permathin treatment. Also took John's advice and got a tick twister today , ticks are nasty this year.
