Help with Tick problem

[chuck.johnson3]

I'm trying real hard to keep everything non organic off my yard but the ticks are eating me up as well as my pets. Does anyone have any ideas, as to how to get rid of the ticks and stay organic? I'm at my last rope and need help or Iwill spray them with insecticed tomorrow.

It's been a couple of weeks since your post about ticks and I was wondering if you had had any luck. We've never had a problem with ticks, but this year it's awefull. I was out in the garden last night for about 30 minutes and came back with 3!!

Like yourself, I'm a big believer in organic -- but the health of my family and our pets comes first.
