Wearing light colored clotheshelps. Taking an ororless garlic capsule every day works well for both ticks and chiggers. Been doing this for over 15 years and have not found a dug in tick or gotten anychigger bites. Have found ticks on my arms and legs from time to time but they were trying to get away.

I have had great successspraying my clothes down with Repel Permanone. I buy it at Wamart(camping section of Sporting Goods)for $4.96 a can. It will do two sets of clothes. It keeps the red bug and tic away. Also help keep the skeets of you too.

Also ditch your clothes as soon as you get home and take a bath in HOT bleach water, then scrub with soap and shower off. This gets them before they're burrowed in. They can crawl around for a while before digging in deep.

RE: CHIGGERS
Another thing to consider is that red bugs don't affect everybody equally. I'm in the woods all the time and it is rare that i get bit by red bugs or ticks. When I do get bit by a bug I just apply the Chiggeraid and if it isa rare tick, just pull him off.
