May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month

Even though we had a late start to spring, that's not stopping the ticks from coming out in full force.  Ticks are carriers of Lyme Disease, which is a bacteria disease that causes rashes and many other complications if not taken care of right away.  Lyme Disease has been increasing rapidly in the United States throughout the past few years, and many people are not aware they might have Lyme Disease right away.  Be careful when spending time outside, especially in wooded areas where ticks thrive and make sure to look yourself over for any ticks that might have clung on to you while you were outside.  Since May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month, try your knowledge with this quiz on Lyme Disease!   http://mosquito-control-blog.com/2013/05/01/lyme-disease-awareness-month-is-in-full-swing/
