In the summer, many of us strive to spend time in nature, but encountering ticks can ruin the entire experience. Although many products have been tested, finding a truly effective repellent can be difficult. But this summer we found a way to avoid unpleasant encounters with these insects. An acquaintance who works as a forest ranger shared with us the secrets of what ticks cannot stand.

Vanillin, which is often used in cooking, does not repel ticks, so it is best to use natural vanilla oil or vanilla beans. To create an infusion, take a few vanilla beans per liter of water, bring to a boil and leave to infuse. Before going out into nature, apply the infusion to your skin, first checking for allergies.
