What DOES help to repel mosquitoes?
With the arrival of warm weather, we open doors and windows. For many, the annual fight against mosquitoes starts there. Will it be a summer-long swat fest, or is there an easier way?
Protection against ticks
Usually, you won’t discover a tick until it has attached itself to your skin and gorged itself on blood. Check yourself after being in grass, shrubs or heathlands. Even better: protect yourself against ticks!
Identifying dehydration
Dehydration is when the body loses more fluids than it takes in. You may feel weak and can experience headache, dizziness and nausea. In addition, you stop urinating and you will be thirsty.
