“I live in a Lyme Disease hot zone. These have become my everyday socks to protect against tick borne diseases when in my yard. Walking the dog several times a day and lawn care chores resulting frequent exposure. Yet, so far, I’ve had no ticks. Unlike my COVID-19 immunizations, these socks work!!
Great, comfortable protection!”
“I can wear these with my pants from Insect Sheild and feel confident I won't be itching with chiggers after being in my garden or in the woods. So grateful I found this company!”
“These socks are extremely comfortable in all weather including very hot weather (86 degrees). I tuck my Insect Shield pants into these socks for when I am gardening. No ticks on me since I began wearing Insect Shield gear. I wear women's size 10 AAA shoes and bought size medium socks. They fit well.”
“I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these socks. They are called lightweight but seem to be more midweight compared to my other socks which is good. I have two pairs from last year and bought another in 2022. The newer socks are longer in the calf and come higher up the leg which is probably good for ticks. I bought XL and they fit very well for size 13. Very comfortable socks.”
“I live on 167 wooded acres in the crown of Maine. Our state bird is a toss-up between the black fly and the mosquito and our state insect is the deer tick. I bought these socks hoping they would be somewhat effective. They are 100% effective. I've not had a bite even when I've been bushwacking. As soon as I came home from my first hike, I ordered four more pairs. They are spectacular.”
“I like tick protection on my feet because I assume ticks come in that door. I liked the look and feel of these socks. They are soft and have obvious bug repellent smell. However, they are not breathable and my feet were getting hotter the longer I hiked.”
