The Dangers of Ticks

Do you like investing time outside during autumn? While these hotter seasons are an incredible time for you and your families to love the outside, ticks will be there as well, stowing away in the foliage of your backyard and prepare for a bite.

Why should you be worried about ticks? Like mosquitoes, ticks are transmitters of disease. Tick-borne disease is extremely dangerous, because they affect tens of thousands of people throughout the USA every year. Unlike mosquitoes, ticks do not grab a blood meal and go on their way. Ticks have beak-like projections which plunge to the skin of the host. Based on its type, a tick may feed the host’s blood for hours, days, or even weeks. Tick-borne diseases include lyme disease, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, rocky Mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash infection, tick-borne relapsing the fever, and tularemia. Out of all arthropods, ticks spread the broadest array of disease-causing organisms.

Because they can cause diseases, tick-borne diseases are extremely dangerous as they may affect thousands of People each year.

Ticks are ectoparasites that live on the blood of mammals, and people. Usually, an infestation of ticks in the garden causes something from a small disease to severe rashes and fevers with aches and pains.

Based on the type of species, ticks can feed on their host’s blood for hours, days and even weeks. They also grew bigger due to the amount of blood that they consumed. They are voracious blood drinkers for they want huge blood meals in each stage of the growth.

There are seventy (70) species of ticks in Australia. Tick-borne bacteria exists which can spread disease and cause allergic reactions that can occasionally be life threatening.

Your chances of disturbing the tick increase by scratching it or trying to remove it, often resulting in the injection of toxic saliva. That is what can cause allergic reactions. In some cases, these can be life-threatening and very rarely, cause paralysis and death.
