Tick Bites Surge: Protect Yourself & Pets

Tick bites surge in U.S., with nymphs causing highest disease risk. Thirty-one million Americans bit annually, spreading Lyme, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and alpha-gal syndrome. Warmer weather increases outdoor activities, raising tick exposure. California nymph season runs March to July, packing the biggest disease punch. Protect with repellents, treat gear, shower after outdoor time, and check for ticks. Remove with tweezers, clean up, and seek medical attention if symptoms appear. Keep pets safe with vet-approved collars or meds. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
