Great tip from the article – permethrin pre-treating your hiking/field clothes (do this *outside* in a well-ventilated area and keep away from pets until dry!) makes them an even stronger barrier to mosquitoes & ticks 🦟

And it works for scabies too, though first line treatment in the US usually topical permethrin, right?

Die Therapie erfolgt mit Permethrin-Creme 5%, die von Kopf bis Fuß lückenlos aufgetragen werden muss.
Alternativ kommt Ivermectin als Tablette in Betracht. Wegen potentieller Nebenwirkungen ist es Mittel 2. Wahl.

Bugger, Tilly and I both just got bitten by a bull ant. Bush walks might be too risky this summer.
I’ve already had 3 tiny grass ticks too.
Straight onto them with Lyclear permethrin cream which kills them, if you’re lucky, before they embed.

New: I called up Thomas Mather at University of Rhode Island, @thetickguy.bsky.social, to ask — How do you fend off ticks?
Spray any shoes you're going to wear in nature (even walking shoes, golf shoes) with permethrin to ward off ticks.

Permethrin seems to also work as well is my understanding but that stuff can be bad for some pets.

When you are a birder, picking out your wardrobe for a big trip is easy. We’re heading to a malaria zone so a little permethrin treatment just happened.

Penn State has been researching "tick tubes," for people to use on their property. It's a tube filled w cotton soaked with permethrin & the idea is that mice will take the cotton to use for nesting and the permethrin will rub off onto the mice. When ticks latch onto mice ticks die.

Public health expert here, specializing in military medical entomology. In the absence of effective countermeasures (such as vaccines, bed nets, permethrin treated uniforms, etc) the disease and non battle injury casualty rate will exceed the combat casualty rate.
