Pictures of people covered with ticks

Ticks are parasites that obtain nutrients by using vampire rats, poultry, wild animals and even humans as hosts . If not discovered and removed in time, red pimples may form at the tick's bite, which may even lead to the spread of infectious diseases (such as Lyme disease, Japanese encephalitis, etc.). Therefore, when doing outdoor activities, we should pay attention to measures such as wearing appropriate clothing and shoes, using mosquito repellent, and washing hands frequently to avoid tick bites and parasitism. If any abnormalities such as skin itching, redness and swelling occur, seek medical attention promptly.
