Abstract
An article of clothing is disclosed that is designed to protect a user from ticks, other arachnids and crawling insects. The article of clothing can be in the form of a chap that encircles the leg of the user. Ties near the top of the chap support the chap on the user's belt. The chap material is sewn to create a circumferential flap, preferably near the top of the chap. An impervious strip encircles the chap just below the flap. A narrower absorbent strip is sewn onto the impervious strip. Tick repellent may be applied to the absorption strip, and the impervious strip prevents the repellent from soaking through to the chap material and the user's clothing. The flap tends to hang downward to shield the absorbent strip. A hem at the bottom draws the chap material around the leg of the user.
