Permethrin

Do any of you use permethrin treated clothing working around big cats? What I have read says it’s when wet that it poses the highest risk to felines and it should be okay once dried. I am obviously never actually coming into physical contact with the cats, just worried about being in their enclosures and cleaning with my treated clothes on. I’m outside all day in an area that has super large populations of ticks and high incidence of tick borne diseases so I’d like to treat my pants, shoes, socks, etc. already have found a bunch of deer ticks on me so far this season and it’s taking a toll on my mental health lol

Black legged tick?

I work outside in New Hampshire, first one I’ve found on me after work. Wasn’t attached but still curious what it is. My gut says black legged but I just moved here so I’m unfamiliar with the species in this area
