As springtime temperatures start to rise — typically above 45 degrees — you will want to think about how to protect yourself and your pet from ticks in grassy, leafy and wooded areas. As outdoor activities ramp up, so does exposure to ticks, which are on the prowl and ready to hitch a ride on you or your pet.

Pro-tip: 1000mg odor controlled garlic tabs for only 6 bucks for 200 doses HERE. Take one a day to keep the ticks at bay.
I used to pick up ticks like crazy any time I went into the brush until a reader tipped me off to these garlic tabs. I went from having to pull several of the little bastards off of me anytime I even went near my treeline to maybe one or two a year after I started taking the tabs.
