Ticks and Leeches

Ticks and LeechesFlying insects are bad enough, but when they start crawling all over you and sucking your blood it's time to take serious action!

Ticks and leeches can be thoroughly unpleasant at the best of times, and even a little bit scary if you're not quite sure how to deal with them....

Ticks are becomming more common throughout the UK and increasingly they carry with them the risk of infection with Lyme Disease.

The best defence is to try and keep them at bay with a combination of insect repellent and protective clothing, but if any of them do make it through your defences a tick removal tool could come in very handy....

Perhaps they're just trying to be friendly and they're terribly misunderstood, but as far as most of us are concerned leeches are just horrible blood-sucking pests and best avoided like the plague!

Insect repellents can help - particularly so when used in combination with permethrin clothing treatment - but the best defence is a pair of leech socks tied above your knee.
