Ticks are minute arachnids that are very dangerous to the health of human beings and animals as well. It is very important to identify tick symptoms so that tick protection and diseases are avoided and early treatment is obtained.
1. Physical Presence of Ticks
The simplest sign of tick infestation is that ticks are found on the body. Ticks prefer the thinner parts of the body, i.e., the scalp, behind the ears, armpits, and groin. Ticks are pinhead-sized before feeding but swell after feeding. Ticks do not fly or jump but crawl onto hosts from leaves using a method called "questing.".
2. Peculiar Symptoms in Human Beings and Animals
It begins with a no-obligation, no-cost consultation. Call to make an appointment or drop by to make one. Our trained professional will visit your home to listen to your problems, inspect your home, and give you an honest, open estimate. No surprise charges—just fair labor from beginning to end.
3. Evidence of Tick Bites
Its painless tick bites are undetectable. If an engorged tick was the culprit, there's a red bull-shaped rash characteristic of Lyme disease. The rash will tend to "bull's-eye" and can grow larger over time. If a rash under any of these circumstances does arise, best to go in and get checked out right away.
4. Increased Ticks in the Environment
Do not walk through wooded, bushy, or grassy lots. If your lot or even the space just outside your lot is more wooded, then tick-borne disease is prevalent in the region. With certain precautions, including spraying your lot and applying tick repellents, you can minimize your risk substantially.
5. Animals with a history of tick exposure
Animals, especially dogs, are likely to become infected due to tick bites. Their symptoms and signs are excessive licking, scratching, or having ticks on their body. Periodic checking of animals and administration of veterinarian-recommended tick preventatives will keep them from becoming infected with tick-borne diseases.
Proactiveness and watchfulness in observing the signs will avert the spread of tick-borne illnesses. At the onset of suspected cases of tick infestation or tick-borne illness issues, it is highly recommended that one hires the services of a medical practitioner or pest control specialist.
Not only are ticks a pest, they are also vectors of a number of fatal diseases. Ticks can be managed and diagnosed early with the knowledge of some important facts about ticks.
1. Ticks are arachnids.
Even though ticks are insects, they are arachnids and more related to scorpions and spiders. They have eight legs but no antennae or wings. That puts them in the same order as other blood-sucking arachnids like mites.
2. Ticks do not jump or fly
Ticks do not jump or fly. They employ a "questing" mode of seeking a host. They will climb to the end of a thorn or the end of a grass blade and will extend their front legs forward in an effort to grab a passing host. They are very difficult to remove when they are away from the host.
3. Ticks Spread a Lot of Diseases
Numerous illnesses, including Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, and babesiosis, are spread by ticks and can also result in co-infection, which poses a major risk to one's health.
4. Ticks are also hardy in extreme conditions
Ticks are extremely resilient and can withstand extremely high and low temperatures. They prefer warm temperatures and can endure extremely long intervals without consuming blood. They can survive for months without taking in blood, thus becoming long-term threats in most environments.
5. The life cycle of the tick is complex
Life cycle of tick is egg, larva, nymph, and adult. They need at least one blood meal in each stage except the larval stage to reach full growth. Larva is the toughest one because nymphs are very small and hence can't be detected, so disease transmission is inevitable.
6. Not all ticks are infected
While ticks are vectors of many pathogens, not all tick-borne pathogen transmission is present. Risk varies with tick species, duration of attachment, and tick infestation with pathogen. Earliest removal of tick significantly lowers risk of transmission.
7. Ecological role of ticks
Even though they transmit diseases, ticks also serve nature. Ticks are a source of food for most of the predators like reptiles, birds, and small mammals. Ticks as a source of food in the biosphere lead to equilibrium in nature.
With this knowledge, ticks are avoided and controlled. In case you usually have a lot of ticks or live where ticks are found, you can hire and treat an exterminator.
