Kuzuia: Jinsi ya Kuondoa Ticks Karibu na Yard yako, Nyumba, na Mwili Wakati wowote wa Mwaka

Ticks inaweza kuanzisha duka kwa urahisi karibu na nyumba yako, lakini vidokezo hivi vinaweza kuwaweka mbali na kusaidia kuzuia kuumwa.

There are few things more horrifying than finding a tick crawling on you—except maybe one that’s already bitten and attached. That’s because tick-borne illnesses like Lyme disease are on the rise across the U.S., and they come with unpleasant symptoms, like rashes, joint and muscle pain, dizziness, and headaches.

While tick bites can be scary, there are things you can do to prevent them. It’s important to note that ticks can be highly active anywhere between March and November, so you should be vigilant beyond summer if you’re in a known tick habitat, like deciduous forests or grassy areas.

The first step? Avoid the grief altogether by defending your yard, clothes, and skin from the blood-sucking pests. From landscaping tips to the best repellent to full-body checks, here’s how to get rid of ticks once and for all.
