This is based entirely on my own
experience.
Throughout my
travels I have spent a significant amount of time sitting,
squatting, lying, and otherwise
existing in
tick infested environments. This
configuration of flea collars has worked for me: one collar around each wrist, each ankle, and two looped around the belt. Ticks enjoy attaching themselves in
tight, warm places. Inside
boot socks, waistbands, under watches. The flea collars seem to deter them.
I would not recommend spending time near many ticks. If you must however, give this a shot.
Nobody likes ticks.
