ABSTRACT:
A device serving as a barrier and trap for ticks, other arachnids, insects and other small crawling creatures, which is to be worn around the limb of a user, i.e., the leg(s) and/or arm(s), depending on the area(s) of potential exposure. It comprises a band fitted about the limb and an adhesive surface on the band for trapping the crawling creatures, thus preventing them from gaining access to the parts of the body that are past the point on the limb where the device is fitted. The device also comprises a shield structure to protect the adhesive surface in the form of a lip member extending from one end of the band and having an integral shielding surface opposite the adhesive surface with spacing means to prevent the lip member from sticking to the adhesive surface while spacing it therefrom to permit free access of crawling creatures.
