Lyme Disease is on the rise in Scotland and can be a serious condition if not treated early. Remember to check for ticks after playing outside – particularly if you’ve been in the garden, the park or in town or woodlands. These spider-like creatures attach to skin underneath clothing, they are very small and can be hard to spot. Doing a full body check especially around the hairline is extremely important.
If you have young children, why not make a fun game out of checking for ticks – by having a good look then tickling for lots of giggles?
