An accident may be just around the corner. For this reason, it is important that you always have a First Aid kit. When travelling you need different First Aid products at home or in your car. In warm or humid climates in the (sub)tropics, minor wounds soon become inflamed, so effective treatment is very important. For this reason we recommended to take an extensive set of sterile equipment with you. A tick remover is also an absolute must, and so are the tick test, foot care products (for blisters), and after bite care to suck out the poison.

Always a First Aid kit
The medical facilities in the country of destination are not always up to the standard we are used to at home. Sterile needles, syringes and other medical equipment may be scarce. This increases the risk of contagious diseases such as AIDS and hepatitis B. For this reason it is recommended to take an extensive set of sterile equipment with you, next to your First Aid Kit
Prevent Tick bites
A tick remover is also an absolute must. In the Netherlands for example, 15% of the ticks is infected with theLyme bacteria.
Care Plus Tip
