DHS provides tips on how to stay safe from ticks
Madison (NBC 26) — Memorial Day Weekend leads us to warm summer weather, but also revives the prime season for mites and mosquitoes.
Rebecca Osborne, a vector infectious disease epidemiologist at the Wisconsin Department of Health, said:
According to Osborne, both mites and mosquitoes are common in Wisconsin, especially in wooded, grassy, and grassy areas. They are currently active and will be active in the coming months. They spread the disease by bites. The most common disease is Lyme disease, which is spread by bites of infected deer ticks.
According to Osborne, Wisconsin reports an average of about 3,500 Lyme diseases each year, making it one of the top 20% of the country. This reported number of cases of Lyme disease may underestimate the actual incidence of Lyme disease by more than 10-fold.
Here are some DHS tips for staying protected from ticks:
- Use EPA-registered insect repellents on exposed skin and clothing before heading outdoors. Before use, clothing, shoes and gear can be treated on the side of an insect called permethrin to prevent mites and mosquitoes from biting. Follow the instructions on the label carefully.
- You can also wear long sleeves and trousers to cover your exposed skin.
- Avoid walking directly on tall grass, brushes, or litter-rich areas while outdoors. These are the most common places for mites.
- After returning inside, check yourself and your family thoroughly.
- If possible, take a bath or shower within 2 hours of coming indoors to wash away mites that may have adhered to your skin.
- Place the clothes in the dryer over high heat for 10 minutes to kill the mites picked up outside.
- If you are bitten by a tick, check for fever, rash, or flu-like illness for the next 30 days. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact your healthcare provider and tell them that you may have had ticks.
