I have always found ticks in Louisiana and Tx. If i am walking in the woods or heavy brush I like to use quite a bit of insect repellent along my feet, shoes, boots, waist line, neck line. They seem to get in these places. I also use repellent before i skin a deer. I hate ticks. But chiggers are the worst. Summer time chiggers will drive you batty.
