Mylar Film is Building Electricity and Shocking Me

I have mylar film duct taped to a sheet of blue tarp and its hanging. If i rub my arm against the mylar, it will shock me, and it hurts, like being deeply scratched. This happens continuously. The mylar may be resting upon the metal of the LED grow light.

Will this shock my plants when they are growing? How do I fix this?

I'll try attaching a wire to the mylar film, and then to another metal ground type object...see if that takes off the charge??!
