Enjoying the warmer weather and longer days?
If you are out and about, ticks and the potential risk of Lyme Disease shouldn’t prevent you from enjoying the outdoors, but there are some things you can do to avoid being bitten.
- Use an insect repellent that prevents ticks
- Wear long sleeves and long trousers to prevent direct skin exposure
- Keep to clearly defined paths and avoid brushing against vegetation
- Check for ticks on young children, around their heads and neck
- When you’re back indoors, check for any ticks on you, your children and pets
- If you find a tick, remove it as soon as possible with a removal device
