Subject: [NatureNS] Icaridin for ticks
=20
Dear All,
I bought some WOODS 20% Icaridin this year which "offers protection =
from mosquitoes and ticks for 12 hours and Black Flies for 10". It may =
offer but it does not deliver.=20
Thursday evening I sprayed and wiped it on bare arms, neck, cap and =
face. I typically had more than 10 Mosquitoes on my arms and some on =
face and neck throughout the one hour walk. And found a dog tick behind =
my left ear the following morning.=20
This morning just after getting up I found a dog tick on my neck =
(perhaps collected on my walk Friday). My clothing is not treated so the =
ticks may ride home in my clothing. But, because Mosquitoes ignore it, I =
wonder if the "Icaridin" in this product is more than mildly scented =
water. I need a tick picker.
