If your garden has been set up in a traditional way, without fencing and so on, it might be useful to spread ground ivy around to discourage ticks and other annoying wildlife.

how does ground ivy discourage ticks?

They are not actually that fond of plants with the same name.  They might find the ivy unpleasantly spicy, but then again they might not.  The basic idea is just that it’s there, and ticks have to balance avoiding it with whatever else might be available for food.
