IT's time to get out the DDT. Not really, but last year I read that PGC did a study at some controlled burn sites, and what they found was that 86% of the ticks were kill in the burns. I'm not sure of the methods, but that's what they reported.
Chickens and turkeys eat ticks, so if you have turkeys nearby it's a good thing, if you can have chickens where you live that's a plus, and you get the benefits of having fresh eggs whenever you want them.
Showering with a hot shower after being outside will kill most of the ticks on you before they transmit the disease, and washing you clothes of hot water kills the ticks left on clothes.
