Tick Bite Prevention Week starts on today!
Ticks can live in woodlands, moors and grassy areas like parks and gardens. They enjoy warmer weather as much as we do, so watch out for them when you and your pets start spending more time outdoors.
You should check for ticks because they carry microorganisms that cause disease such as Lyme disease and, more rarely, tick-borne encephalitis.
Find out what simple actions you can take to protect yourself and others from tick bites.
