Tick season sure ain’t what it used to be. Warmer winters are causing the tick population to increase. They’re even spreading into higher elevations and new regions. The risk is real, and if you like to go outside, you may be noticing the trends first hand.
Climate change isn’t some distant future problem. Sometimes it looks like rising seas, other times it looks like checking your legs after a walk with your dog in your neighborhood.
Stay tick safe. Check your pets and yourself right after a jaunt outside, wear pants and tall socks (a look), and use repellant when needed.
