Does this work for repelling ticks as well? Some sprays are good for mosquitoes, etc but don't deter ticks...

Megan I cannot be certain however I will say I camped right near the coast of Connecticut for 4 days and I did not have a problem with ticks or mosquitos. Just fyi "Lyme disease" got its name from Old Lyme, Ct and I was just south of there. Do a google search on "essential oils tick repellent" and you will find a bunch of different mixes that work well for you and your pets. Here's one that I found..http://www.primallyinspired.com/easy-natural-tick-repellent-that-really-works-essential-oils/I hope this helps you.

Hi Megan. Bottom line: I'm not sure. Here in San Antonio, TX, I have yet to see ANY ticks, although others have reported seeing them in heavily wooded areas. Can't hurt to try, though.

http://www.cedarcidestore.com/natural_pest_control.html There's a video and the instructions for dilution. We've used this product to fight fleas in our yard/garden stones area. It WORKS! :-) We also saw a decrease in ticks!

a proper response to this question - YES it will keep mosquitoes away, if you point it at them. This is a FAN, not a mosquito repellant

Mosquitos yes. Ticks and chiggers we have to see if the component of the repellent have permethrin which I consider the only one capable of kill Ticks.

My concern was for a product that would repel mosquitoes; I haven't encountered no-see-ums or other blood-suckers. I suggest that you go to Avon's Web site and ask them. I'm sure they would know BUG GUARD'S capabilities.

Yes, I bought this mainly for my dogs. I spray it all over them but don't get it in their eyes. I don't know for sure but I suspect it will repel both fleas and ticks but this product is mainly for mosquitoes. Rose geranium oil is a good tick repellent.

I use this for tick protection on my pets. I mix it with essential oils and vinegar. I spray it on my pets every time I take them out. Not sure what you are using it for.

It didn't work for Mosquitos. And it only is supposed to be used outside. It's catches random flying insects. I didn't notice any flies in it tho. It's a super waste of money for any bug killing device. Save your money.

See the other answer. I used what I bought for treating wildlife infested with ticks. My biggest problem was getting it onto the animals.

This product works as a deterrent to keep ticks off. If a tick gets on the dog it rapidly gets stunned and falls off before biting. I have seen them falling off my dog. I don't know if these ticks die shortly after or if they can still cause harm if the dog drops them at home. I haven't seen any tick on my dog for months. I'm due to order another Virbac collar soon.

Some really powerful repellent. I jog for one (1) hour several days a week and all other sprays were a joke and mosquitoes seemed to laugh at it. I work in my garden for several hours (sometimes all day) and no bug will hit me even with one application. Randall

I have never used it for mosquitoes. Just for the bugs that munch on my tropical plants and flowers. And now that you asked this question, I have only seen one mosquito so far..hmmmmm..and I live in Florida.

No idea, we applied it outside. It was very effective for Mosquitos and ticks.

This is for flea control only. I did not find it effective. For flea and tick Frontline usually works.

I am not really sure if it is working on ticks. I have seen only one tick so far this season. My neighbors have seen many and they use other bug sprays. I've never had a tick problem so I couldn't guarantee it works on them. I can only assume since it is working on the spiders and these gigantic ants we have here that the ticks are history as well. good luck Elizabeth. Trish

I read that this would repel ticks. They said mix 1 part with 2 parts water and spray on your shoes, socks, pants etc. Has anyone tried this and does it work to keep ticks off? I sure hope so!

I only used it when going for walks in a nature trail. Stopped using it because dog came home with ticks. works on some dogs, doesn't work on others
