Don’t let a tick make you sick!

Ticks live close to the ground where there is tall grass, shrubs, and leaves. They wait for an animal or human to walk by to grab on to. You may come in close contact with ticks while doing outdoor activities in tick habitats, like camping, fishing, hiking, mushroom hunting, or walking your dog. 🍄🥾🌲Wear insect repellant that contains DEET and stay out of wooded areas and places with tall grass and weeds. If you go where ticks live, wear long sleeves, long pants, and walk in the center of trails. When you come back inside, check yourself (and your pets) for ticks. 🌾

TIck Bite Prevention

Ticks are active in Illinois, and they’re not picky about where they bite. 👀
If you’re spending time outdoors hiking, gardening, or mushroom hunting, a few simple precautions can help prevent tick bites and reduce your risk of illnesses like Lyme disease and alpha-gal syndrome.
✔ Use insect repellent with DEET or picaridin
✔ Wear light-colored clothing and tuck pants into socks
✔ Walk in the center of trails and avoid tall grass
✔ Check yourself, your kids, and pets for ticks daily
✔ Shower after spending time outdoors
If you find a tick, remove it quickly and watch for symptoms like a rash or fever. Contact your doctor if you develop unexplained illness after a tick bite.
Learn more about tick bite prevention and what to watch for below.
