At Mosquito Hunters™, we are completely committed to protecting you, your family, and your pets from these dangerous pests. Ticks spread harmful infections such as Lyme disease, so you need to take every action possible to reduce the chances of a bite. Fortunately, our expert tick prevention can provide guaranteed protection for your Jacksonville area property. However, when you venture away from home, you need to rely on various DIY methods to minimize your chances of an attack.
For your kids, it’s critical to cover up their exposed skin as much as possible. Never let them wear open-toed shoes when out in the park or forest. For enhanced protection, have them tuck their pant legs into their socks. Ticks love to bite this area of the lower leg, so it’s very important to deny them this opportunity. Also, if they wear lighter colored clothing, it will be easier to spot any ticks that land on their body.
Protecting your pets is a bit more complicated, since they have long fur and are lower to the ground. If your pet has spent time out in tick-territory, make sure to give them a thorough inspection before allowing them back inside your home. You can do this with a pet comb, starting near their head and making your way around their body. You can often feel for ticks with your hands at times. When you find a tick, do not remove it with your hands, but instead use a pair of tweezers, pulling slowly, to ensure that you get the entire body.
By adhering to these basic tick prevention techniques, you can minimize the chances of your children or pets being infected with a tick bite.
