Winter ticks are ruining my hunts

[Z7Extreme]

I spend quite a bit of time in the river valley as well and I get hammered by these little buggers every year. The bites last about 2-3 weeks and are super itchy. I have narrowed it down to the swamp grass as to where they like to be. Thanks for this thread, I'm going to look into that permethrin. Its been a few years since my first encounter so I have experienced quite a few bites over the years and so far I haven't seemed to contract anything from them.
