Yearly PSA-Avoiding tick bites. Avoiding skeeter bites.
Take garlic pills & ticks will not dig in to your skin. Garlic is also good for your circulation/heart.

(disclaimer- this is from personal observation, ticks will try to attach but they do not stay due to the garlic)

If skeeters are attracted to you, try to avoid bananas in the summer. The potassium in the bananas attract them. Again, garlic will help repel them.
