Keep Ticks Away

If you want to lower your risk of getting a tick-bite fever, keeping ticks away is your best bet.

Our pharmacist offers these suggestions for reducing the tick population near your home:

  • Prune trees.
  • Clear brush.
  • Remove litter.
  • Mow grass short, and let it dry thoroughly between waterings.
  • Get rid of bird feeders and birdbaths.
  • Clear away woodpiles and leaf piles.
  • Remove stone walls that offer homes to small wildlife.
