Before you head inside after spending time outdoors, take a few minutes to check yourself, your children, your pets and your gear for ticks. Some ticks are no larger than a sesame seed, making them easy to miss.

✅ Perform a full-body tick check after outdoor activities.
✅ Examine clothing, shoes, backpacks and outdoor gear.
✅ Shower within two hours of coming indoors when possible.
✅ Tumble dry clothes on high heat for at least 10 minutes to help kill ticks.
✅ Use an EPA-registered insect repellent and wear long sleeves and pants in wooded or grassy areas.
✅ Remove attached ticks promptly with fine-tipped tweezers.

A quick tick check can help reduce your risk of tick-borne diseases and keep your outdoor adventures safe. The 🔗 in the comments has more information.
