Title: Tick gaiters
Post by: Jim K on February 22, 2017, 09:26:32 PM
Does anybody recommend some good ones? I usually wear knee boots and tuck my treated pants in, but some places I want to wear better walking boots. I would like to get some gaiters and treat them and wear them. Thanks for any help.

Permethrin is the only way to go. Retreat every 4-6 weeks. I've watched ticks crawl up my pants, appear disoriented, then fall off dead. I don't go into the woods without it.

What Mick T said. Gators aren't worth the hassle and don't work too well. Permethrin; better living through chemistry.
