I just got a four year old and cannot get her to poop in our yard she wants to go to the woods when we do we pick ten to twelve ticks of of her and on us, tick control keeps them from sicking on her but not on us. Any ideas?

You'll need to wear light coloured clothing: long pants and long sleeved shirts with pants tucked into your socks and wear a hat. Inspect repellent.

Know that ticks do not jump or fly. They wait in tall grass for anything to go by and they then cling to it and climb to a protected area.

I googled a natural alternative for humans:
