Tick season is here! Protect yourself and your pets by covering up. Wear long sleeves, long pants, light coloured clothing, tuck pants into socks, and make sure you use a bug spray with DEET or Icaridin. Remember to always check yourself and your four-legged pals for ticks after leaving a grassy or wooded area.
