The article Effective and free mosquito repellent. And chemistry against ticks I told you how you can get a natural free mosquito and tick repellent. In the comments to the article, one of the readers wrote:

The cheapest way to get an emulsion from ticks is to dilute the Inta-vir tablet, known to all gardeners, in water. Inta-vir contains pyrethroid cypermethrin, which paralyzes the central nervous system of insects and arachnids. You will have to calculate the proportion for adding water yourself. You can approximately dilute an 8 g tablet in 2-3 liters of water. Naturally, you can apply only ON CLOTHING!

The active substance of the drug, as the reader wrote, is cypermethrin (contains 37 gr. per 1 kg of the drug). With an aqueous solution of the drug, you need to treat the clothes you have taken off (through a spray spray). The method is as effective as a store-bought spray against these dangerous blood-sucking ones.

How cypermethrin affects ticks - you can see in the video in the article (the link indicated at the beginning). But this drug is toxic in high doses for large animals and humans. So they don't need to over-process their clothes. And do not allow contact with the skin, and even more so do not inhale when splashed. After processing the clothes, let them dry, and then you can go to the forest.

The cost of the drug is cheap (compared to a spray for tick protection):

Sold in any gardening store with seeds and fertilizers.

Also, this tool will help in the fight against aphids and ants on the site. But do not forget that the drug also affects insects such as bees and bumblebees - they do not need to spray the area during the flowering of plants and trees.
