Ticks
Ticks lie in wait in grass and undergrowth from early spring until autumn. Their bite carries the risk of encephalitis and borreliosis, so protection is needed by everyone who goes out into nature, works on a country property, or works in the field. Our format is protective sprays.
About the pest
A tick neither jumps nor flies: it sits on blades of grass and on shrubs up to half a meter high and latches onto whoever passes. After that it spends tens of minutes crawling up the clothing, choosing a place to attach — and that is the window in which the right clothing and the right treatment intercept it.
The danger from ticks is infection: tick-borne encephalitis and borreliosis (Lyme disease). The risk is not confined to the forest — ticks live on country properties, in parks, and on pastures. Activity peaks in spring and early summer, with a second rise in early autumn.
Personal protection is built on sprays, used as directed for the specific product, and on the right kit: long-sleeved clothing, trousers tucked into socks, and light-colored fabric a tick is visible against. After a walk, check each other over: a crawling tick is easy to remove before it attaches.
- Treat clothing and gear according to the product instructions.
- Tuck trousers into socks — the tick's way up should run over fabric, not over skin.
- Check yourself every couple of hours and again once you are back — a tick takes a long time to find a place to bite.
- Remove an attached tick by twisting it out and, where possible, submit it for testing.
Worth knowing
It does not jump — it latches on
A tick sits in grass up to half a meter high and latches onto the clothing of passers-by — it does not drop from trees.
The interception window
Before it attaches, a tick crawls up the clothing for tens of minutes — checks and treatment close that window.
The main risk is infection
Ticks carry encephalitis and borreliosis; the risk exists in a park and on a country property, not only in the forest.
Two peaks in the season
Spring to early summer and early autumn: in these windows tick activity is at its highest.
