Michigan’s Tick Surge and Lyme Risks | Lansing News

Tick season is hitting Michigan hard—with Lyme disease cases soaring sixfold in just three years. Experts warn of rising black-legged tick numbers and urge outdoor adventurers to check thoroughly for ticks after hikes or walks. If you find one, remove it carefully by grabbing near the head and pulling straight out. Watch for early symptoms like a spreading rash, fever, chills, and body aches. And don’t forget your pets—they can carry ticks indoors too. Stay alert, stay safe. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
