Landscape Noord-Holland believes that everyone should be able to enjoy nature carefree and makes free drawing cards available that fit in your wallet. They contain a notch to quickly and smoothly remove both adult and young ticks (nymphs). With the pass in your pocket you are always prepared, but also protect yourself by wearing closed clothing: wear long sleeves and long trousers. And if you’ve been outside, check your clothes and body for ticks.
Nature and green organizations regularly draw attention to ticks, tick bites and the risks of tick bites. Because such a bite can cause a lot of misery and cause Lyme disease. Many people think that ticks live in trees, but that is not true. Ticks are located in the forest, park, heath, dunes or in your own garden. They sit near trees, bushes or tall grass and dead leaves. You always have to be careful when you are outside.
If you have been bitten by a tick, you are at risk for the infectious disease, Lyme disease. To prevent this, a tick must be removed as soon as possible (within 24 hours the risk of being infected with Lyme is small). The nymph, the immature tick, is probably the main carrier of this disease. They are no bigger than a pinhead and often difficult to see. More information about the risks and the best protection measures can be found at: www.lymevereniging.nl.
