Caption: (Jan. 23, 2017) MAYPORT, Fla. - Hospital Corpsman 3rd Class Joshua Nieto of Navy Entomology Center of Excellence (NECE), Jacksonville, Fla., applies the insect repellant permethrin to uniforms at Naval Station Mayport, Fla. Defense Public Health biologists studying MilTICK samples found that ticks submitted by service members using permethrin-treated uniforms were less likely to be engorged, which lowers the chance of passing along an infectious agent that can make someone sick.
