numbers of people to the woods and fields where ticks abound, while migration to the suburbs has resulted in more people living in proximity to tick habitat.
Dr. Cooney urges individuals going into tick habitat to inspect themselves thoroughly when they come out. “By carefully checking your clothing and skin, you can often get ticks off before they attach. If a tick does attach, it should be removed as quickly as possible. The best way to remove an attached tick is with tweezers. First douse the tick and the skin around it with an antiseptic, then grasp the tick with tweezers as close as possible to the point of attachment and remove it with a slow, steady pull. Do not jerk the tick, for often the head will come off and remain imbedded in the skin, which could lead to secondary infection.”
