Outside the window is the most beautiful time of the year - spring!
A little more than a week will pass, and the last snow will come down, the first greenery will appear - grass and leaves on the trees. What could be more beautiful in nature! Only one thing overshadows - this is a rather dangerous time, and in late spring and early summer, ticks will completely become a real misfortune.
Pulling this extremely dangerous insect from under the skin is quite problematic.
In addition, a tick bite is a risk of contracting a fatal disease, because. ticks are carriers of viral encephalitis. Precautions
Once in an area where ticks can live - on the shore of a reservoir, in a forest, you should wear light-colored clothes (the tick will be more noticeable on it) with long sleeves and a hood.
Pants, trousers must be tucked into socks, even if they are shod with boots. If there is no hood on the clothes, then there must be some kind of headdress, ideally with fields. Trick - protection from ticks.
However, there is a simple trick that will allow you to spend time in nature, fishing, hunting, or just walking through the forest, without any fear of being bitten by a tick.
You need to take a regular roller for cleaning clothes and spray it with some essential oil. Then run it a couple of times all over the body - that's all. Ticks will go around for a kilometer. Alternatively, you can put a few drops of the same essential oil into the water and spray the body and clothes. Better than other essential oils of ticks (as well as other blood-sucking insects), eucalyptus, geranium or palmarosa, lavender oil will scare away.
