Some ticks can transmit illnesses such as Lyme disease, so early detection is very important.
Now I always check my child’s hair, neck, behind the ears, and scalp after outdoor activities. I also make sure he wears long sleeves and uses insect repellent when playing in grassy areas.
Honestly, I never imagined I would find a tick hiding in my son’s hair. It was terrifying, but it also reminded me how important it is for parents to stay alert.
Have you ever experienced something like this before?
