    Research shows that light colors - especially white, attract ticks. Experiments were done with black sheets / white sheets under trees and brush. Ticks swarmed the white sheets while only a few were found on the black sheets. Dark colors are said to be best at repelling ticks. Even on my border collie, the ticks tend to migrate off her black areas and try to latch on in her white areas. Just a tip from someone who lives around a lot of ticks.

      Yes but dark colors also attract a lot of stinging insects like bees and wasps, they did similar experiments showing that dark colors cause more stinging when encountering enraged pollinator insects that sting. And ticks don't travel to you like a flying insect. Ticks fall onto you or you step so close they crawl onto your shoe. They aren't fast, they have to grab onto you as you pass. So it doesn't matter if the color you wear attracted them in some experiment, that's not real world, where a tick can only really get to you if you come into contact with a surface it was sitting on and it can reach out to you in a few steps. Whereas an experiment showing flying stinging insects are more aggressive toward a specific color and they can fly faster than you run, is much more real world accurate to the insect in question. The sheets in the tick experiment were stationary sheets under a tree, because ticks have to fall onto something to get there. If you're sleeping under a tree full of ticks like a sheet on the ground, you'll be covered in ticks no matter what color you wear, because parasites aren't only driven by color but also by lactic acid in your skin and sweat, and CO2 on your breath, and the colors are not their primary location sense, unlike pollinators who are looking for dark purple flowers and then get pissy when they find you instead.

    Please mention that most tick bites aren't from the adult insects. Bites are from nymphs, which are tiny and hard to see. They are the size of crushed black pepper or other tiny seeds.

    I have lupus and I didn't go camping or hiking, I was at my friend's house he let me borrow a beige jacket where two ticks were hiding inside the sleeves onlin each sleeve exactly where your arm bends. I got bit exactly same spot each arm. Long story short I was in the hospital for 1 months my arms were so swollen they looked like popeyes arms.liquid started seeping thru all of my arms pores and I had a fever of 105 in the ER doctor performed emergency surgery on both arms and there was no time for anesthesia he literally scooped out the inside of my elbow , I came down with sepsis, MRSA, and had to do the same surgery 4 times 4 days straight because I wasn't responding to any antibiotics and pneumonia and lupus round of prednisone. I left a month later. Not fun.Why we re they inside the sleeves 1 in each??

    One tick you didn't mention was the seed tick. They can climb up your legs and are about the size of a sesame seed, dark brown and easy to over look.

      I was originally diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Went to a naturopath dr and found out I have Lyme. Western med doctors don’t run accurate tests for Lyme. Scary since I know there are other people out there still struggling.

    The tick has little to no positive environmental impact other than the occasional small meal for chicken, grouse, turkey.
