The Dangers of Ticks

Enjoying nature and spending time during fall? While those warmer seasons are a good time for you and your own family members to enjoy some fresh air outdoors, ticks might be there also, hiding in the foliage of your backyard and are geared up for a bite.

Why should you be worried about ticks? Like mosquitoes, ticks are transmitters of disease. Tick-borne disease is extremely dangerous, because they affect tens of thousands of individuals throughout the United States every year. Unlike mosquitoes, ticks don’t grab a blood meal and go on their way. Ticks have beak-like projections which plunge into the skin of their host. Depending on its type, a tick may feed on the host’s blood for hours, days, or even weeks. Tick-borne diseases include lyme disease, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, rocky Mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash illness, tick-borne relapsing the fever, and tularemia. Out of all arthropods, ticks spread the widest array of disease-causing organisms.
