TiCK MiTT delivers innovative and chemical-free tick protection for humans and pets heading into prime tick season
TiCK MiTT, the tick solutions company is on a mission to reduce cases of tick-borne diseases through innovative, chemical-free products – a safer, easier alternative to traditional chemical-based methods. Ticks can survive and thrive in unexpected places, posing significant risks to both humans and pets. While the threat can be alarming, it doesn’t have to be. May marks Lyme Disease Awareness Month, and TiCK MiTT wants to ensure everyone has the tools and knowledge to perform effective tick checks in the palm of their hands.
TiCK MiTT is a labor of love in its mission to help other families and their pets take all the necessary precautions to reduce the risk of a tick bite. The company was co-founded by former Magnolia Bakery CEO and entrepreneur Steve Abrams and his daughter Olivia Abrams, who both have had personal struggles with Lyme disease. The family was inspired to take action and protect themselves and their pets.
“It’s that time of year when the weather starts heating up and everyone heads outside for an afternoon in the park with their pets, out on hikes, or goes camping. It’s also that time of year when tick exposure is at its highest,” said Olivia Abrams, CEO and Co-Founder of TiCK MiTT. “While ticks can be a threat year-round, it’s important now more than ever to learn about the risks, so that you can have peace of mind while enjoying your favorite activities. We want to make sure you have the resources necessary to protect your whole family. This Lyme Disease Awareness Month and beyond, we at TiCK MiTT are pushing to do just that.”
TiCK MiTT’s lightweight and portable design makes it a must-have tool for outdoor adventures, providing protection for adults, children, and pets. The brand just launched a smaller TiCK MiTT for kids so the entire family can learn how to perform effective tick checks together.
“Education is one of the first lines of defense against tick-borne illnesses such as Lyme disease. Most importantly, it’s vital to know how to prevent it, and what steps to take,” said Steve Abrams, Co-Founder of TiCK MiTT. “Early detection and removal of ticks are both key in significantly reducing the risk of transmission.”
In 2024, TiCK MiTT partnered with additional retailers across the country and is now available through giants such as Amazon, Chewy.com, is in Orvis stores in more than a dozen states around the country, just launched with Dunham’s Sports, Duluth Trading Co, Fleet Farm and has several other exciting partnerships to be announced soon. It is also available in several international markets including Europe and Korea. TiCK MiTT retails for $19.99 and is available in a variety of colors with additional products, such as an embedded tick removal tool, in development.
The brand offers a unique, chemical-free approach to tick removal. Consumers simply rub the TiCK MiTT across skin, clothing, or pet fur after an outing to remove loose ticks.
