Cooler weather Ticks love it – Lyme Disease

Ticks live well in both warm and cold weather. Ticks carry Lyme disease that is 10 times higher then reported because the signs and symptoms are not always easy to identify. The disease can affect more than one organ including the nervous system, the brain, gastrointestinal system, the heart, muscles and the joints. Mice and deer are carriers of ticks that are most active during both the fall and winter seasons in gardens, landscape plantings, backyard grasses and heavy wooded areas. To reduce your risk of coming into contact with ticks on your property: prune trees, clear brushes, cut grass short, no bird feeders or bird baths, and while outdoors where long sleeves, long pants, shoes and socks.
