Any non chemical solutions for tick control?

Answer:
Essential oils will deter those pesky insects. Oils such as lavender, tea tree and lemon are most helpful. If you have a dog, you can help by giving him small amount of garlic in his food - this will give him an undesired taste to ticks, fleas, and mosquitos. I have also used NEEM protective spray and this is very effective and safe. Please see my sources for some online stores you can obtain various flea and tick products. My third source will list some ways you can effectively prevent fleas and ticks without buying expensive products. (note, my third source is advice specifically for dogs)
