Ticks are small spider-like creatures with a shell on their backs that become active from spring to June. The common species in this region prefers high humidity and avoids direct sunlight. They like to inhabit tall grasses and underbrush in parks, gardens, and forests. Therefore, it is strongly advised against going barefoot during this season, as ticks feed on blood when they bite and can transmit various dangerous infectious diseases, with around 70,000 citizens getting infected each year, which can lead to chronic consequences. This book provides an overview of ticks, tick bites, potentially transmitted infectious diseases, as well as prevention and treatment options.
