    I live in the outer banks, I work for the parks service so I'm often in high grass or woods; mowing, etc. I've found this stuff ineffective against ticks and chiggers. My body and torso are proof of this. I hear all the commercials how capt Marty loves this stuff, but I don't even bother using it anymore.

    Just my opinion.

    Dang, the stuff is so effective for gnats flys etc. Was really hoping it was effective against both chiggers and tics. Thanks for the report

    Of course Chap Marty isnt on the trail or high grass. He is on a boat where there are no creepy crawly bugs. Just the flying kind.

    Exactly. I know they say ticks and chiggers, but honestly, I went out today in the buxton woods area, came back with two ticks and countless chiggers. And my boots and legs were soaked in that stuff.
