Tick Fact Friday!

As were ending National Tick Awareness Month and heading into April our last Tick fact Friday is about where a tick is most likely to be found on dogs and the best way to check your dogs for ticks!

Checking your pets for ticks! 🐶

Step 1: Starting at your pet’s head, use your fingers like a comb and run your hands over your pet’s body. You are feeling for lumps or bumps you previously did not notice. Make sure to check under your pet’s collar, inside the groin area, and under your pet’s front legs. It’s also important to examine under your pet’s tail and between his toes.

Step 2: Check your pet’s ears thoroughly looking inside and out.

Tick Fact Friday!

We are focusing on what places/area ticks are likely to be found so you know when to be on guard!

Did you know..?
📍 Ticks can be found in many areas across Canada, but they prefer to live in wooded areas, in tall grasses, and under leaf litter. They can also be found in urban areas, like city parks and green spaces.
🍂Avoiding tick habitats help reduce the risk of exposure.
Ixodes species (such as the blacklegged tick) prefer moist environments like leaf litter.
🌱Dermacentor species (such as the American dog or wood tick), a hardier tick, can live in drier environments like tall grasses.

Tick Fact Friday!

Since we are getting some warmer weather and the snow is starting to melt, we have a fact about what temperatures ticks start getting active again!

Did you know..?
🌡️At 4°C ticks start looking for an animal or a person to feed on for a blood meal, and will continue until the temperature consistently remains below 4°C.
Blacklegged ticks can be active any time temperatures are 4°C and above, including mild days during the winter months.

🍂Ticks can even survive the winter by hiding under snow, leaf litter, and brush.
