Tick-No-Stick Organic Tick Repellent

Sweet Harvest Farms has created a Tick Repellent that is both DEET-Free and gentle to your skin.

Duke University has found that "rats treated with just the average human dose of performed far worse than control rats when challenged with any physical tasks requiring muscle control, or coordination." They have also concluded that children are at a higher risk for brain changes after using DEET due to skin absorption.

Another study found that geranium oil works similarly to DEET in repelling ticks. The plant species is pelargonium x asperum (geranium bourbon), derived from a French island. It is produced in very small quantities and many aroma therapists claim it can help repel ticks. It is not a guarantee, but it will certainly deter the pest!

When coming in from outdoors where ticks might be found, it is always a good idea to use a pet lint roller over your clothing, changing lint roller sheets often. These will pick up any ticks that have clung to your clothing.

This lotion also contains pelargonium x asperum along with lemon eucalyptus, lavender oil, rosemary oil, and a touch of tea tree oil (that also works on mosquitos).

Always remember to keep any products containing essential oils away from your eyes.
