Transmission by ticks is a critical source of lyme disease. Avoiding exposure, using insects repellent in endemic areas, and killing fleas and ticks on pets, are all means of prevention. Deer herders and deer hunters are at risk from deer-borne ticks.

Also you may want to try using bug sprays that say they also protect against ticks. Don't forget to do tick checks after coming in from outdoors!
