2) How to properly dispose of ticks if you find one

  • Don’t twist or squeeze the tick.
  • Dispose of it by sealing it in a bag or flushing it down the toilet. You may want to save it in a container for identification.

For pets: Check areas like ears, armpits, and paws frequently. Keeping pets tick-free helps protect your whole household.

If you’ve been bitten: Watch for symptoms like flu-like aches, rashes (especially bullseye-shaped), or fatigue. Seek medical attention promptly—early treatment can prevent serious illness.
