Prevention


Prevention is one of the reasons I started this site.  Along with
helping those who have a tick disease.  It is a very easy disease to prevent compared to other diseases.   Simply be aware of where ticks might be located, be aware of how ticks get on you and attach to you  , wear proper clothing, use chemical repellents, know what to do if a tick gets on you,  be aware of signs and symptoms of a tick  illness,  seek medical help if these signs appear.


Other sites have addressed these issues in detail.  Giving them a great deal of credit for having this information.
