we make Permethrin 'tick tubes' for our yard. In a nutshell, it's bedding for mice laced with permethrin. Ticks attach to the mice during the mice breeding cycles in March and July here in New England.

I'm out in the yard a lot, I pull ticks off daily. I fortunately never have had Lymes but I noted (anecdotally) that the tick population has exploded in the last 10 years with the milder winters.

It's concerning. Probably going to get a flock of guinea hens this year.
