What is a tick? Ticks are also known as wall ticks, dog ticks, grass ticks, cow ticks, dog beans, and cow ticks, and are a common parasite. The tick is only the size of a sesame seed before it sucks blood, but after it sucks blood it is like a full soya bean. Normally, ticks lie dormant on grasses and plants in shallow hills and mountains, and seek opportunities to parasitize animals between their fur. Ticks can carry 83 kinds of viruses, 14 kinds of bacteria, 17 kinds of spirochetes and 32 kinds of protozoa, and are second only to mosquitoes as vectors of disease in nature.
How to prevent ticks: The most effective method of regular use of insect repellent is, of course, external repellent. Generally the parasite can grow and take shape in four weeks, so it is recommended that owners deworm their dogs externally once a month. If the dog is often outside, it is even more important to maintain a high frequency of deworming. Regular grooming grooming can not only prevent hairball disease, improve the emotional communication between the owner and the dog, but also take a closer look at the dog’s skin condition, timely detection of problems and containment of small symptoms. Avoid taking your dog into unmowed and unwormed grass as little as possible, and if you go on a trip far away please do a good job of in vitro deworming in advance and carry a pet insecticide spray with you. Check for ticks immediately after going outside. Ticks like to attach themselves to thin layers of skin, such as the face, ears, limbs and between the toes. Therefore, after taking your dog for a walk, check these areas in particular to avoid bringing ticks back home.
