Previously, when there was still the Union, there were almost no ticks, lived quietly, and now they divorced immeasurably.

Tick season It begins with the first spring rays (romantics and kebabs) and ends in late autumn with early frosts. During the more or less warm period, there is a risk of bringing a nondescript and dangerous insect - a tick from a walk in the park or forest.

There is an opinion that under the Union of ticks was much less. Over parks, squares, forest plantations and forests sprayed chemicals, which destroyed all insects-bloodsuckers. Of course, during the treatment of pesticide fields by spraying chemicals from the air at the place of the turn of the “corner”, poisons fell outside the field and destroyed all living things. During this period, there was an active season of ticks, and they also fell under the distribution, as well as rare insects listed in the Red Book.

But most of all prevented the excessive reproduction of insects severe frost, which did not allow them to survive the winter. And in the season of ticks of sexually mature individuals was much less. Now the climate is becoming milder, insects tolerate winter easier, and nothing prevents them from fully multiplying.



The population of ticks, given their incredible fertility, is constantly increasing. But even before the ticks were quite a lot. It was just that they were less talked about because people were less aware and less informed. Today, the tick did not have time to sit on a person in one end of the country - everyone knows about it in the other!

Rules of behavior in the tick season in nature

1. Dress before going to the forest in a light trouser suit with long sleeves, which have a rubber band and fit tightly to the body at the wrists. Shoes should be closed, and the pants below would be nice to tuck into socks – ugly, but safe! Don’t forget to wear a headdress: it’s hard to spot a tick in your hair.
   
   
   
   
2. If health allows and there are no contraindications, you can treat clothes with special repellents (sprays or aerosols). So you will become less attractive not only to ticks, mosquitoes, but also other insects that can be found in nature.
3. Come out of the woods – examine the clothes and shake off the uninvited “guests” you will find on yourself. Dark bugs on light fabric will be clearly visible.
4. Upon returning home, it is necessary to examine the entire body (especially delicate places), where the vessels are located very close to the surface of the skin, and completely change clothes. Dirty clothes should be thrown into the wash immediately.
5. If you find a tick on your body that has drunk its jaws into your flesh, do not panic. But you can not delay: you need to immediately remove the entire insect. It is necessary to address this problem to the hospital, where the tick is obtained easily and quickly. But sometimes you have to take care of your health and pull the bloodsucker on your own.
   
   
   
   

What's gonna help extract the tick?

1. A special device for twisting a tick. You can buy a tool and take with you on tours or walks in the forest. The device helps to easily remove the insect intact.
   
   
   
   
2. Strong thread. It is necessary to throw a loop on the head of the insect from an ordinary thread and, slightly turning counterclockwise, pull out the tick.
3. Tweezers. You can try to get a tick with tweezers. You need to grab the insect with the tool closer to the bite site and, moving tweezers against the clock, smoothly pull on yourself.
4. Disposable syringe. You need to cut off the thin part of the syringe, and then apply it tightly to the site of the bite and pull the piston to form a vacuum. He'll pull the tick out of his skin.
