With deer ticks and Lyme disease that I worry about, I always shower at

Ticks would be more successful if they didn't feel the need to crawl all
over you looking for just the right place. I've had mixed success with
showering. We have the Rocky Mountain wood tick variant which is larger than
the eastern deer ticks so they aren't too stealthy.
