What protection against ticks do you recommend?

Protection against ticks can be achieved by using various repellent preparations, wearing appropriate clothing, and avoiding places where ticks can be found, such as tall grass and forests.

Here are some ways to protect yourself from ticks:

Repellents - There are various DEET or Icaridin-based preparations on the market that can help repel ticks. These preparations are available in the form of sprays, lotions and gels, and should be used according to the instructions on the package.

Appropriate clothing - when visiting the forest, wear long pants and sleeves, preferably made of thick material that will make it difficult for ticks to access the skin. You can also wear light-colored clothes to make ticks easier to spot.

Avoiding places where ticks may be - avoid tall grass, bushes, and not walking in the forest immediately after rain, when ticks are most active.

Body check - after returning from a trip, you should carefully check the body for the presence of a tick, especially around the neck, groin, armpits and other places where ticks like to gather.

Vaccination - if you are going to be often in forests or areas where ticks are present, it is worth considering vaccination against tick-borne encephalitis.

I also encourage you to consult a doctor or pharmacist who can help you choose the right preparation and advise you on how to effectively protect yourself against ticks.

this preparation for ants, permentrin in combination with glycerin, and this is how clothes are impregnated, glycerin because without glycerin, permethrin will fall off the clothes like powder after drying, and glycerin is a general recipe, there are detailed recipes on the internet what proportions liters of water. This post is just information that something like this is going on and effectively kills ticks on contact. They are immediately shocked, go around in circles and breathe. Note that it is toxic to cats. this permethrin.

From personal experience, I recommend two methods: vaccination and the use of sprays when going to allotments, forests, etc. There were no post-vaccination reactions after vaccination. As for sprays, they have a deterrent effect thanks to their smell. I also recommend adequate clothing, i.e. long sleeves and trousers.

There are several ways to protect yourself from ticks. First of all, it is worth avoiding tall grasses and shrubs and not entering dense forests. You should also wear long sleeves and pants and use insecticides and repellents on your skin and clothing.

When it comes to preparations, you may want to consider using tick repellents. They are available in the form of sprays or gels. Pay attention to the composition to ensure that they do not cause allergies or other unwanted side effects. When applying preparations to the skin, always follow the manufacturer's instructions.

For natural remedies, consider using essential oils with tick repellent properties such as lavender, peppermint or eucalyptus. However, it should be remembered that natural remedies may be less effective than chemical preparations.

Vaccination against tick-borne encephalitis is an effective method of protection against the disease. If you live in an area where the risk of infection is high or you plan to travel to tick-prone areas, it is worth consulting with your doctor for information about vaccination and the decision to take it.

Spraying the plot will definitely help. Tansy planting also. It is worth lubricating the skin with preparations against ticks. You can also try insect repeller, in my case it worked.

My home and effective way is to smear the body (not the whole) neck, hands, ankles with vanilla oil for cakes. I used to have problems with ticks, I did not vaccinate.

How to protect yourself from ticks and tick-borne encephalitis?

Despite the fact that a tick bite is usually completely painless and the perpetrator is extremely small, the consequences of the diseases carried by it can have a long-term impact on our lives. Chronic fatigue, sleep problems, nerve damage that makes it difficult to move - these are just some of the unpleasant consequences of tick-borne diseases.

Ticks carry a variety of disease-causing microbes, including viruses such as TBE virus as well as the bacteria that cause Lyme disease. Modern medical advances are only partially effective against both of these diseases. There is no treatment for TBE after the onset of the disease, but effective vaccines are available to prevent it. The opposite is true for Lyme disease: The disease can be effectively treated with antibiotics, but there is currently no approved vaccine to prevent it.

If you want to protect yourself, you should avoid tick bites where possible.

As an artificial intelligence, I cannot give medical advice because I am not licensed to practice medicine. I encourage you to consult a doctor or pharmacist who can help you choose the right protection against ticks.

Do not walk in the forest, parks and thickets. Stay home, drink beer and watch TV.
