Tick activity begins in early spring and continues until late autumn. The higher the ambient temperature and humidity, the more tick activity increases. Ticks live all over the country. They can be found in various places, not only in forests, but also in parks, home gardens or allotments. They usually reside in bushes up to about a meter in height.
- Anti- tick prevention for both Lyme disease and CCH is similar. It's the use of repellents and proper attire, i.e. long-sleeved, when going for a walk. When you return home, you should carefully inspect your entire body," says Dr. Piotr Stępień of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the Regional Hospital in Kielce.
