Think bug season ends in summer? Think again. Discover 10 natural ways to protect yourself from late-season ticks and mosquitoes during fall hikes, leaf-peeping, and family outings.

🍂 Top 10 Cold-Weather Habits to Keep Bugs Away During Fall Adventures

When November hits, most people pack away their bug spray with their swimsuits—but nature doesn’t stop. Many tick species remain active in cooler weather, and mosquitoes can linger until the first hard frost.

The good news: with smart seasonal habits and the help of a natural tick spray like TickWise, you can keep exploring, hiking, and enjoying fall’s crisp air worry-free.

Here are 10 cold-weather habits to stay naturally protected this fall:


✅ 1. Keep TickWise Handy for Late-Season Hikes

Cooler weather brings perfect hiking conditions—and active ticks in leaf piles and tall grass. Always apply natural tick repellent before lacing up your boots, especially around ankles and pant cuffs.

✅ 2. Don’t Let the Long Sleeves Fool You

Long clothing helps, but ticks can still cling to fabric. Spray natural mosquito repellent on outerwear and socks before outdoor chores or hikes. The essential oils in TickWise naturally discourage pests from attaching.


✅ 3. Stay Protected During Leaf Cleanup

Raking and bagging leaves might feel safe, but ticks love the damp layers underneath. Always use natural tick spray on gloves, socks, and pant legs before tackling yard work.


✅ 4. Protect Pets During Walks

Ticks thrive in piles of fallen leaves and wooded trails. Spray a light coat of TickWise (dog-friendly!) before every fall walk, and check your pet’s fur when you get home.


✅ 5. Reapply After Sweaty Activities

Cool air doesn’t mean no sweat. Outdoor chores, chopping wood, or long hikes can wear protection down. Reapply natural mosquito spray repellent every few hours.


✅ 6. Use TickWise Before Bonfires or Backyard Gatherings

Mosquitoes love the damp warmth around fire pits and woodpiles. Keep a bottle of TickWise nearby and spray before sitting down for those cozy fall nights.


✅ 7. Layer Smart, Spray Smart

Thicker layers can make people forget bug protection—but that’s when ticks catch you off guard. Apply a base layer of natural tick repellent before getting dressed for outdoor errands.


✅ 8. Keep TickWise in Your Car or Backpack

Spontaneous trail stops or roadside hikes are common this time of year. Having TickWise in your car means you’re never caught unprepared.


✅ 9. Prep Before Fall Camping Trips

Late-season camping means fewer crowds—but bugs still lurk. Spray tent openings, chair legs, and clothing with natural tick spray before settling in for the night.


✅ 10. Don’t Forget Winter Prep Days

When decorating, cutting firewood, or bringing in outdoor furniture, treat your clothing and gear with tick repellent. Bugs may be slower, but they’re still out there looking for warmth.

🌿 Nature Doesn’t Stop for the Cold—Neither Should Protection

Don’t wait for spring to think about bugs again. By keeping your natural mosquito repellent routine going through November, you’ll stay one step ahead of late-season pests.

Stay outdoors. Stay active. Stay TickWise.
