You need to get some Sawyer's Permethrin spray. Treat your clothing the day before per instructions on bottle and you're good to go for several weeks, even with several washings of clothing.

Available at Academy, Walmart and many other places, as well.
Having been plagued with tick problems every year, I found permethrin about 10 years ago and
have not had a tick since, and I am primarily a predator hunter. Calling predators requires snuggling up tight to the brush for concealment and ticks were a severe problem, BS (before Sawyer's
).
At one time, Academy was out of it for a period and I discovered concentrate at the Feed and Seed store (that was before Tractor Supply, but I'd bet they have both concentrate & dilute) and have mixed my own to same strength as Sawyer's with same results.
Enjoying you guys, hunting banter. Hope you all score that big 'un. How long does your season run?
Happy Thanksgiving!
