If I see a tick bite, I sure as heck am not going to wait until I THINK it has infected me - as it is insane to take that risk. If I find an attached tick, I IMMEDIATELY go get prophylactic antibiotics (usually doxycline capsules). I spent over two nightmarish years trying to overcome late-stage Lyme, and other related problems beyond that! I didn't know what was wrong with me for about 4 months. NEVER tested positive and didn't have a bulls-eye rash - but did find a dead, engorged tick on me - likely, the size of the head of a pin when it crawled on me. IF you have been sick without answers, nothing showing up in blood tests, and think Lyme might be a possibility, do NOT waste time with a doctor not experienced in treating it. Many docs won't take you serious, or they might give you a small dosage of antibiotics that isn't nearly strong enough or treated long enough. Lyme is tricky to diagnose and if testing doesn't show what's wrong, a good Lyme doc, given that they testing is highly imperfect, will treat you to see how you respond. Also note, the QUICKER you get on antibiotics, the better chance you have of beating it relatively easily. Caught mine late, and already had serious neurological symptoms by the time I began treatment. Last thing, once you begin antibiotics, as the bacteria begins to die off, your symptoms may initially get worse, which will eventually moderate - but this is a good sign that the antibiotics are killing bacteria. But, again, this is why you need an experienced Lyme practitioner!

..when are ‘production engineers’ going to realize the ‘music’ detracts - not adds - to the presentation..? Dogdamn, how annoying..

Will it work on rubber boots? My daughter and I always have are pants tucked into are tall rubber boots. From Hawaii spend the summer in CT woods.

Very convincing. Except for...... I once absolutely saw a tick hanging off the edge of a leaf ready to drop. And before you start thinking I'm mistaken, know this: my daughter grew up wearing a shirt saying, "My Daddy Is Always Right"

I just finished 21 days of doxycycline for lyme disease in Poland. Fukn things are everywhere 😢

Stopped watching after the first two "myths" that I have never heard a single person say.

Look! It’s simple….. stay away from clocks!!!

I've noticed that i don't get a lot of ticks on me when I stay in full sunshine instead of shaded areas. Coincidence or fact? Do you have any data on shaded areas vs full sunshine for tick population? Thanks for the informative video.

this sounds like a guy who's selling something... oh wait he is

Did I miss the part where he mentioned what clothing to wear (like long sleeves and pants, not permethrin infused) or did he not talk abt it? Do pants protect you?

They use static electricity to attach to their hosts.

I contracted Lyme/borrelia from chiggers. Also, it's static electricity that attracts ticks to it's host. They are able to, seemingly, jump or fly through the air to land on its host.

I did some outdoor version of Hair in Danbury, Connecticut. I must've rolled over on a tick during the luvin

Thank you for not showing horrific close up pictures during this video.

What about ears?

Russian outdoor trousers have a downward fold at the calf which prevents ticks from migrating fully up the leg. When at rest you can flip up the fold and clear out the ticks. Do US manufacturers use this technique?

Sorry, but this guy is full of shit. He can be an “expert” at something and still not know all the facts.

You forgot to mention the myth that they can transfer poison oak/ivy.😂

We live in the woods, and a few times I've had ticks above my shoulders... hubby said, no, they don't go high up, it must've climbed up you... Well, if that were true, I would have noticed while they were still on my legs - i can feel EVERYTHING!!! Plus, our big dogs get a lot of ticks along their topline, which tells me that some of those suckers are absolutely dropping down from above! The bullseye bit is true: I had one bite that resulted in a bullseye but it resulted in nothing. Mind you, i just don't get sick, either, so 🤷‍♀️ hubs has multiple bites all over (they do take many months to heal!) but never got a bullseye.

I've been to the Dr. 3 times in 10 days thinking it's Alpha Gal I have all the symptoms after eating red meat. Kaiser Dr. here in Oregon had heard of it but was basically clueless and could not give me a test. Still on the quest to find out WTF is wrong with me

I hate ticks but I love spending time in the woods during the spring time looking for elk antlers. One time I accidentally left my gear in my rig over night and the next day when I was driving I saw one fall off my rear view mirror and land on my right knee.

Is it safe????? You are gloved up... What happens if your clothes get wet.... What aee the side affects if any.... Can someone talk about this

Mr. Roger’s Talks Ticks

The size of a 50 cent piece. When did you last see a 50 cent piece?

Maybe he should spend more time in the woods watching ticks rain out of trees than studying inside a building parroting lies.

Seriously this guy obviously has no idea what he's talking about he's giving out very bad advice

Excellent video…

Did he just say a tick hangs out at different heights based on what it wants to feed on? WHA?! So, ankle-height ticks have low aspirations and waist high ticks are targeting something bigger?

He has never gone archery hunting.

Wrong Ticks, hang onto the bottom sides of leaves, usually up to 4 to 5 feet. We have fishermen, from all over the US, that come to Colorado to fish the Frying pan River. The Town of Basalt, has more varietys, of ticks, than you can imagine. Deer ticks, brown, the borown ticks with a red dot, Texas black, ticks, actually 7, differnt kinds. We had a hotel where the fishermen, hanks there waders, over the 6ft fence, to dry but not washed out, before they come here from out of state, and the foilage is thick and lush. Ive tured leaves over for city officials at 4 to 5 feet, and sue enough, they are on the bottom of the leaves. And Deer wether Whitetail, or Muleys, bellys are at least 3 to 3 1/2 feet from the ground. Always check yourself, after any outing, and each other. Washing your clothes dont get rid of ticks. Ive seen ticks that survived three and 4 wash cycles, with detergent, alive and well.

"Ticks don't even have eyes".... but apparently know how high they've climbed and prefer dark colours?

I appreciate the link that shows the other insects that look like them. 👍 I can see how people would confuse them with ticks.

He's SSSOOOO WRONG ,ticks fall from trees. I use to camp at my friends property several times a year and the area would get infested with ticks from time to time. I had a shaved head and could feel a tick instantly and had the exact same camping spot under a very long and high up branch and I have personally seen them fall from the trees on people with absolutely no wind and the drop was scout 25 feet and the base of the tree was a good 15 feet away.

Wear long pants.

Whenever I see a product being marketed in conjunction with an "informative" video, I think twice about it's true intent...

I spend a TON of time in marsh and forest in Michigan. Permetherin has been transformative, 100% effective in my case. So good, I just wear mid calf socks, shorts, and whatever shirt. I use Deet and Picaridin and can still fail against mosquitos but have been successful in fighting ticks. Before permethrin, I ended up at the DR from a tick dug in my back. I rejoice knowing that my clothing and great are harbingers of death for these psycho tics!

Do South East Asia ticks carry more disease or they don't generally? Because it is like very abundant here sometime you will find them in dogs during rainy season

When the first thing you say is a lie i can't believe anything else you say. Ticks DO fall out of trees.

The saliva of the lone star tick is extremely toxic and can cause long-term skin lesions and rash. It seems to be a combination of potent toxins and viruses. I have tried permethrin-treated socks and that did not prevent ticks getting on me. The only thing that works for me is to wear knee-high socks and to spiral-wrap double-sided sticky tape from the ankle to the top of the sock.

I just wanna be able to walk in shorts :(

You are 100% incorrect. I live in Kansas and I cannot tell you how many times we have used a ladder to climb up in trees to cut branches... And you could literally see the ticks on the backs of leaves. I have climbed down out of a tree with a dozen ticks on my arm after reaching in with a chainsaw to cut a branch. And yes, they were ticks, not something else! I have also been standing under a tree talking to my wife and watched ticks land on her shirt from the tree above. So you need to get your facts straight... You are 100% wrong.

I self diagnosed using Google. Had it for a year and a half. I could eat bacon ,eggs, and seafood. Beef most pork and chicken couldn't be eaten. Vitamins were extremely painful. Would last four or five days.

Is it possible to develop a resistance of immunity to ticks? I’m in the woods a lot, I’ve been bitten a lot, but the past few years whenever I find one that has bit me it’s dead or if it’s a fresh bite it’s very lethargic.

That actually happened to me in Minnesota I sat at a picnic table under a dead pine tree and I had thousands of ticks rain down on me

NEVER remover a tick with tweezers, as tweezers squeeze the venom of the tick into your body. Always use a Tick Twister instead.

I do believe if a tick is on a bird squirrel cook Opossum in a tree a tick could fall from the animal in the tree.

Thanks! It helps to see what's involved!

I was just diagnosed. My best friend has it so I know some things about it

I really appreciate this video. I popped something that might be an ingrown hair or might be a tick on the back of my head. I wasn't sure how deep in dookie I was but it's a relief that it's not a huge deal

Clothing keep smelling quiet strong after using this stuff..are you sure it is safe to inhale it while wearing? Or sleep in a tent that has been treated with this stuff??
