for the whole family Tick Bite
Supported by Prevention
Promoting awareness of tick-borne diseases and how tick bites can be avoided with a few simple precautions.
RAY MEARS, BADA-UK Patron
1. Know where to expect ticks. Many areas in the UK and Ireland with good ground cover and diverse wildlife can pose a risk.
2. Use a repellent reading the instructions carefully. There is currently no vaccine to defend against Lyme disease so prevention is key.
3. Tuck trouser legs into your socks. This helps deter ticks from crawling inside your trouser leg, down into shoes and through most socks. Wearing gaiters will also help to prevent this.
4. Do a tick check. Look for ticks on clothing and exposed skin while you are out and do a full body tick check when you get home.
5. Don’t bring ticks home. Check clothing and pets for ticks to avoid bringing them inside.
6. If you do find a tick, carefully remove it by using a specialist tick-removal tool.
