Tick populations are increasing across many parts of Canada, with experts reporting expanding tick habitats and growing activity in regions that previously saw relatively few ticks. While many people are familiar with Lyme disease, fewer are aware of Alpha-gal Syndrome (AGS), a condition that has been linked to certain tick bites. AGS can trigger allergic reactions to red meat and other mammal-derived products, sometimes developing weeks or months after a bite.
As more families spend time hiking, camping, gardening, and enjoying the outdoors, prevention has become increasingly important. Wearing protective clothing, staying on marked trails, and checking for ticks after spending time outside remain some of the most effective ways to reduce exposure. Many people are also seeking natural alternatives to conventional insect repellents as part of their outdoor routine.
That's why we created Woodland Shield Tallow Balm. Crafted with nourishing Canadian grass-fed tallow and a carefully selected blend of botanical oils traditionally used in outdoor products, Woodland Shield is designed for hikers, campers, gardeners, and anyone who enjoys spending time in nature.
Whether you're exploring forest trails, working in the garden, spending time at the cabin, or heading out on your next adventure, Woodland Shield provides a natural outdoor companion while helping keep skin moisturized and comfortable throughout the season.
Woodland Shield Tallow Balm is not a pesticide, insecticide, or guaranteed protection against ticks or other insects. Always follow recommended tick prevention practices when spending time outdoors.
