walking on Kings Mountain (south carolina ) trails we decided to get off the trail and cut across a waist high grass field to get back to our car....we got to the parking lot and my friend noticed a tick on my back (tee shirt)....i pulled my shirt off and i was covered in ticks....we stripped and found them everywhere!.....high grass bad!
Thank you sir for your time to relay ur knowledge and wisdom to us and it is extremely important to me I just wanted to let you know we are grateful 🙏 for your time and effort priceless knowledge u have given me and many more thanks so much
When I was at the Tracker school I never had a Tic problem. Don't get me wrong , they did climb onto me by the half dozens. While I was out doing a meditation exercise I discovered that the Tics would be climbing on my clothes and as soon as they climbed onto my skin they would drop off of me. I was eating lots of fresh raw garlic before I went to the classes. I had a heart condition and was using herbs to better myself and lots of fresh garlic was one of the things I was doing. You have to eat several cloves each day to achieve the desired outcome and start eating them several days before you go out into the woods. You will know if you are eating enough because you and others will be able to smell it in your sweat. You can swallow the cloves whole if you can't handle the taste. I would consume about 4 cloves once or twice per day. I used to weigh 155 lbs when this took place.
everywhere is a mouse habitat. i've seen many rabbits covered with ticks, a sad sight. i assume ticks are everywhere. they are seasonal, till the middle of July, and then their numbers go down.
Frankly, I do most my "bushwackin" thru the woods in winter, and even then I'm careful with bare spots in the sun. In summer I stick to trails, kayak, and bike.

Even in the areas that have only 1 or 2 ticks, they will find me. Ticks prefer some people more than others.
I’ve gotten poison ivy through a few inches of snow. Crawling/ Stalking bow hunting.
