What to know about ticks

The mosquito does not burn with a sting. He is looking for his victims to get blood from his blood. The tick is not such a wandering blood sucker. He can settle down on the host for days, but he is able to suck himself with blood.

The protection against mosquito bites is very important because heartworm spread by infected mosquitoes is becoming more and more dangerous. Various drops and collars can help prevent this. When we protect against mosquitoes, the animal is usually protected against tick bites.

Ticks can spread Lyme disease and need to be protected against them. Most of the adult ticks need blood from females. The male tick can sometimes suck blood, but it is less common. He climbs on to a host animal to find and reproduce a fertile female. However, the females visit the host animal because of the laying of eggs, because they produce the eggs from the blood. After the laying, the female itself is destroyed.

Ticks also need blood in their different stages of growth. The larva will be a nymph, and then an adult tick. For the next stage of development, blood is sucked as well as females for reproduction.

Earlier they were told that ticks are coming from us and our animals from the top and the bottom, but in fact they are waiting below to get close to the farmer (man). Gently climbs up and arrives at a place that you think is right for blood suction, not too fast.
