Serpukhovich reminded about the rules of protection from autumn ticks
With the arrival of cool weather in the suburbs again activated ticks
Parasites do not tolerate heat, so autumn for them is the second peak of the season after spring.
Environmentalists advise when walking through forests and parks to wear closed clothes and headdress, use repellents and every 20-30 minutes to examine themselves and children. Sucking tick is better to remove in the emergency room, and the parasite itself to be analyzed.
The activity of ticks in the middle band is usually maintained until stable frosts, when the temperature drops below plus five degrees. There are enough risk areas in the Serpukhov district: these are forest areas around the city, the shores of Nara and Oka, the vicinity of the Prioksko-Terrasny Reserve and suburban villages.
