Ticks can be much smaller than you think.
Deer ticks, which can carry Lyme disease, may be as small as a poppy seed, making them easy to overlook after spending time outdoors.
After being outside, take time to check yourself, your children, and your pets carefully for ticks. Pay close attention to areas that are easy to miss, including the scalp, behind the ears, under the arms, around the waist, behind the knees, and between the legs.
The sooner a tick is found and removed, the better.
