We all know that ticks are voracious blood preys. Generally, they live on creatures such as our pets and they are a part of the larger informal category of biting pests. Belonging to the family of arachnids, they are categorised as part of the family of lions and other eight-legged creepy crawlers.
Why should you be concerned 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 United States 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 their host. Depending 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 illness, tick-borne relapsing the fever, and tularemia. Out of all arthropods, ticks spread the widest array of disease-causing organisms.
Ticks are ectoparasites that live on the blood of mammals, including humans.
Ticks are ectoparasites that reside on the blood of warm-blooded creatures, including people. For the vast majority, a perversion of ticks from the backyard makes anything from a mild annoyance to serious rashes and fevers with a throbbing painfulness.
Extreme cases of tick-borne illnesses can even result in a respiratory attack and different kinds of shock responses. The intensification of tick bites can be prevented through understanding of tick biology and habitats as well as methods of tick control.
In fact, there are 70 known species of ticks in Australia. That is why most homeowners take action in grooming their pets or cleaning their farms and environment to avoid these nasty crawlers infecting the animals. But once they get in the household, a need for tick control ought to be taken into action.
Your chances of disturbing the tick increase by scratching it or attempting to remove it, often leading to the injection of toxic saliva. This is what can cause allergies. Sometimes, these may be perilous, and very rarely, lead to paralysis and fatality.
