Do you remember I recently went for a walk in the woods? Well, I brought back not only photos but also this kind of "friend" who loves to cuddle and bite. An ixodid tick 🕷. I really hope it turns out to be healthy and doesn't infect me with encephalitis. #TickBite #NatureWalk #StaySafe

One way to get people to avoid red meat!

"Love red meat? You have another reason to avoid ticks this summer.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday said alpha-gal syndrome, a red-meat allergy linked to tick bites, is an emerging public-health problem.

The agency said it identified 110,000 suspected cases of AGS in the U.S. between 2010 and 2022, but said the true number of cases could be as high as 450,000"
