🕷️ Lyme Disease Awareness Month 🕷️
May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month - an important reminder to stay tick aware when spending time outdoors. 🌿
Ticks are most commonly found in long grass and woodland areas, so it’s important to take simple precautions to help protect yourself and your family.
✔️ Use insect repellent
✔️ Wear light-coloured clothing
✔️ Stick to pathways where possible
✔️ Tuck trousers into socks in long grass
✔️ Check yourself, children and pets for ticks after being outdoors
