Hedgehogs are coming out of hibernation much too early, and ticks have free rein in forests and heathlands.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This could be yet another year where a record number of tick bites are reported. Ticks thrive in the mild conditions of previous months &#8211; they become active as soon as the temperature rises above 5 to 10 degrees &#8211; and that is the reason why they have come out early this year and in greater numbers. A good reason to take the right preventative measures before going outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>Care Plus<sup style=\"font-size: 10px;\">\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0is committed to stop ticks\u00a0every year at the start of each tick season: with information about ticks, how to prevent a tick bite and how to remove a tick. Ticks occur in the Netherlands more frequently nowadays and a bite can have unpleasant consequences. It is important to know what to look out for.<\/p>\n<p>Ticks do not fall from trees, as many people think, but live predominantly in shrubs, grass and heathland, including gardens, golf courses and footpaths where you walk your dog.<\/p>\n<p>A tick bite can be prevented by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wearing protective clothing with long sleeves.<\/li>\n<li>Wearing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.careplus.eu\/sv\/myggor-och-fastingar\/skydd\/socks\/\">tick repellent socks<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Apply\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.careplus.eu\/sv\/myggor-och-fastingar\/skydd\/anti-insect-deet\/\">Anti-Insect DEET<\/a> or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.careplus.eu\/sv\/myggor-och-fastingar\/skydd\/anti-insect-natural\/\">Anti-Insect Natural<\/a>\u00a0to exposed skin.<\/li>\n<li>Staying in the middle of footpaths and avoiding high vegetation as much as possible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is a good idea to check yourself and each other after having been outdoors.
