Tick Bites and other
creepy crawly bugs
Ticks are out worse than ever
this year-so everyone I talk to says, and
I have to agree. I got my first bite this
year since I was a child.
These critters just creep me right
out. I saw my doctor and am now on
meds, ideally preventing lyme
disease. If you get bitten-do not
hesitate to see your doctor- lyme disease
is nothing to mess around with. do run,
don't walk to your doctor. The sooner you
get treated to better
you/kids/family/etc.. are.
My doctor said her kids get ticks playing
ball on the ball fields..So check yourself
after being outside. They are not just in
the woods anymore.
Someday they will have a vaccine or meds
like frontline for people--I am
hoping. For now a simple and easy
way to help reduce the population in your
yard is....
DE=Diatomaceous Earth. It is crushed up
sea shells. We bought our 50 lb bag at
paris farmers union, and I would bet any
gardening/farming center would carry it.
Sprinkle it
around your foundation and all over your
yard. Using a seed spreader of something
like that makes this easier.
The sea shells " CUT" the creepy critters
outer shell and they die. SO ANY bug type
with a hard shell.
IE: fleas, ants, spiders, ticks, etc...
Good luck
this season and stay protected and safe.
