Description - Ticks by Alison Blackwell

Throughout rural Britain, ticks are present in significant numbers - and they carry diseases. One of these, Lyme disease, is especially dangerous, and has attracted widespread publicity in recent years. Now, with the problem of global warming, ticks are invading new territories; they enjoy milder winters and their season of activity is growing longer. Their insidious presence is a real concern for anyone who spends much time in open country (or even in city parks). Both pets and pet-owners are at risk. Don't panic! If you deal with a tick attack promptly and correctly, long-term health problems can be avoided. This handy pocket guide, written in an accessible, jargon-free style, contains all the practical information you need to keep your family and your pets safe.
