Maine CDC recommends the following preventive measures to protect against tick-borne illnesses: 1. Wear light-colored clothing so it’s easier to spot ticks; wear long sleeves and tuck your pants into your socks. 2. Use insect repellent with DEET on your skin and apply permethrin, a common insecticide, to your clothes.
