More bad news about ticks

[Finaddict]

perthene just on the clothes ... what about on the skin ... my daughter goes to summer camp, was diagnosed with lymes two years ago ... caught it early ... but want to ensure she doesn't get hit again ... her mother isn't really focused as she should be on protection ... that said ... I read that vinegar is good for repelling ticks (I know it sound weak), not sure it's all that valid ... thoughts on the skin ... as she is not going to wear long pants during summer camp.

I too have a young one...and want to protect her.

I guess there are some home remedies that might be more kid friendly.

seems like citrus and some aromatherapy oils are listed to work....like
Rose geranium oil.

These ticks just piss me off. Its not bad enough that I have to walk
around looking like a dork in waders or a wetsuit. Now, I also need to
smell like the church lady.
