Ticks are everywhere in 2026 - Use Cedarwood Essential Oil and maybe eucalyptus, peppermint, geranium, clove -- they all work well, but cedarwood oil is the important key.... and mix it into a sprayer bottle attachment for your hose and douse your yard or perimeter about every 2-4 weeks. Our yard is quieter for sure, and so many fewer ticks. It basically stops their breathing mechanisms, so they either can't cross that oil line or don't try to. 

Use cedarwood mulch/chips also as a perimeter to keep your yard walkable this summer. If you need help with this or any essential oil recipe, email Oil Lady J at [email protected] - a happy sponsor of the LET'S HASH IT OUT Podcast with The Nerd
