There’s something energizing about breaking a sweat outside—especially during summer. Whether you’re flowing through yoga at sunrise or sprinting by the lake at sunset, working out in nature boosts your mood, builds strength, and refreshes the mind.
But there’s one thing that can throw off your whole routine: bugs.
Ticks hide in the grass. Mosquitoes love the shade you’re stretching in. And biting flies? They’re built for chaos. That’s why it’s smart to build natural tick and mosquito protection into your fitness ritual.
Here are 10 tips to help you move freely and stay bug-free:
✅ 1. Apply TickWise Before You Sweat
Start your workout with a full-body spritz of TickWise, our natural mosquito spray repellent and natural tick repellent in one. It goes on light, dries fast, and doesn’t leave residue—perfect for exercise.

✅ 2. Avoid Grassy or Shaded Areas
Mosquitoes and ticks thrive near trees, brush, and tall grass. Pick workout spots on pavement, mowed grass, or open fields to reduce contact.
✅ 3. Wear Light, Breathable, Bug-Smart Clothing
Moisture-wicking fabrics in light colors help keep you cool and visible—plus bugs are more attracted to darker tones. Long sleeves or leggings offer added protection.
✅ 4. Reapply After Heavy Sweating
Intense cardio means more sweat—and less staying power. Reapply natural mosquito repellent after 60–90 minutes, especially around your ankles, neck, and arms.
✅ 5. Spray Workout Mats and Towels
Bugs love fabric on grass. Mist your yoga mat, towel, or resistance bands with natural tick spray before laying them out.
✅ 6. Use a Bug Barrier Around Your Workout Zone
If you’re staying in one spot (like yoga, HIIT, or stretching), spray a perimeter of TickWise around your area to help deter pests from crashing your session.
✅ 7. Don’t Forget Your Socks and Shoes
Ticks often latch near ground level. Give your sneakers and socks a good spritz before your warm-up.
✅ 8. Stay Hydrated—Then Reapply
Water is essential, but so is staying covered. After hydrating, take a moment to reapply TickWise as part of your cool-down.
✅ 9. Store TickWise in Your Gym Bag
Always be ready. A travel-size bottle in your fitness bag means you’ll never be caught without protection, even on impromptu trail runs or park meetups.
✅ 10. Check Yourself (and Your Gear) After the Workout
Before heading home, scan your body and gear for signs of ticks—especially if you’ve been near grass or tree lines. Reapply if you’re heading to brunch or your next adventure.
