00:00Tick season refers to when the ticks are more active.
00:05We can say that tick season starts from early April with a peak in May, June, and July.
00:13Ticks can carry a lot of pathogens.
00:16When people spend time outside during tick season, one of the things that there are several
00:22measures that they need to take into consideration, which is wear long sleeves, long pants, stay
00:32on the trail because ticks tend to be on brushes and wooden areas.
00:40However, if you stay on the trail, there are ticks like Lone Star tick that it can come
00:48towards you.
00:49So, that's something that you need to take into consideration.
00:54That's why a tick repellent is necessary and highly recommended to wear on clothes.
01:03Tick populations are expanding, not only here in the United States, also the same situation
01:11is occurring in Europe.
01:13Climate change, warmer temperatures will be one of the reasons, not the only one, but
01:20it's one of the main reasons that we now find more ticks than 20, 30 years ago.
