The Dangers of Ticks

We all know that ticks are voracious blood preys. Usually, they live on creatures such as our pets and they’re 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.

In fact, ticks belong to the arachnid family, hence, they are correlated with spiders and other eight-legged creepy crawlers. They are a pretty interesting pest too. When they feed on blood, they have anti-clotting agent mixed with their saliva that prevents the blood from coagulating. If you notice, if you squeeze a tick, you will notice that the freshness of blood coming out from it.

Ticks have beak-like projections that plunge to the skin of the host. Depending on its own kind, a tick can also feed on the host’s blood for hours, days, or even weeks. Tick-borne illnesses include lyme disease, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, rocky mountain spotted fever, anaplasmosis, southern tick-associated rash illness, tick-borne relapsing fever, and tularemia. Out of all arthropods, ticks spread the widest array of disorder-causing organisms.

For most people, an infestation of ticks from the garden causes anything from a mild irritation to severe rashes and fevers with aches and pains.

Extreme cases of tick bites can even result in respiratory arrest and different sorts of life-threatening allergic reactions. The aggravation of tick bites may be prevented through the know-how of tick biology and habitats in addition to strategies of tick control.
