Tick Bite season is in full swing this year! Please call our office as soon as you become aware you have been bitten and especially if the area is red. With immediate notice, we can decide on the best care for your situation.
KEEPING TICKS OFF:
• Ticks are most active from late spring through early fall.
• Insect repellent containing 20–30% DEET is recommended to prevent tick bites.
• Repellents with up to 30% DEET can safely be used on children over 2 months of age.
• Treat clothes with permethrin (don’t use permethrin directly on skin).
• Long pants and long sleeves help keep ticks off of skin, and tucking pant legs into socks and shirts
into pants keeps ticks on outside of clothing.
• Light colored clothing lets you spot ticks more easily.
• Talk to your veterinarian about tick control products for your pets.
• When enjoying the outdoors, avoid wooded or brushy areas with tall grass and leaf litter and walk
in the center of trails.
• Check yourself, your kids and your pets daily for ticks when spending time in tick habitat.
• Bathe or shower as soon as possible (within 2 hours) after coming indoors to wash off ticks.

REMOVING TICKS:
• Use fine-tipped tweezers.
• Grab the tick close to the skin; do not twist or jerk the tick.
• Gently pull straight up until all parts of the tick are removed.
• Wash your hands with soap and water or an alcohol-based rub.
• Clean the site of the tick bite with soap and water or an antiseptic.
• Do not use petroleum jelly, a hot match, nail polish, or other products to remove ticks.

Protect yourself! Be well, be safe!!! 🙂 Flu season typically peaks in December through February, but it can last into May. Even if you missed getting vaccinated earlier in the season, it is still recommended to get the shot if flu viruses are circulating.
The flu vaccine takes about two weeks to become effective, so getting vaccinated now can still provide protection against the current flu season.
