Beware of ticks, outdoor lovers told

People who enjoy a fall stroll in the country or preparing for hunting season are advised by public health officials to beware of ticks.

The Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit warns ticks carry several diseases with Lyme disease being one. Lyme disease is caused by the bite of a black-legged tick infected with a bacteria called Borrelia burgdorferi.

Recent field studies indicate this tick is present in some locations of the 1,000 Islands region. In addition, Lyme disease has been found in ticks along the north shore of Lake Erie, Long Point, Point Pelee, New York State and the eastern seaboard of the United States.

The health unit advises people to minimize their exposure to ticks by wearing appropriate clothing, check your entire body for ticks after returning from the outdoors and to watch for signs of infection if bitten.

Other information is available at www.healthunit.org or by calling 613-345-5685 or the health action line at 1-800-660-5853.
