“My summer work in the woods sock. Holds up well. Comfortable. Not too hot. IMHO Socks may be the most critical piece of clothing for tick protection. Don't overlook them.”
“I already have a pair of heavy weight IS socks, and they’ve kept me tick-free for years. My body temperature runs hot, though, and my old socks give me uncomfortably hot feet in warm weather, so I bought these for summer. I was skeptical that they’d be lightweight enough, but they really are; now I can fend off insects all year long!
I wear a size 8 shoe, and the medium size socks fit perfectly.”
“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.”
