Ticks

Appearance:
Ticks are small, round parasites, usually brown or reddish. They have eight legs and a flat, oval body that swells after feeding on blood.

How to Identify:
Look for a small, dark bump attached to your skin. Ticks can be as tiny as a poppy seed (larvae) or as large as a pea (engorged). Check warm areas like the scalp, armpits, groin, and behind ears.

Treatment Needed:
Remove the tick with tweezers, pulling gently but firmly. Clean the bite area with soap and water. If symptoms like rash or fever occur, seek medical help. Contact Pest Solutions immediately to check for possible infestation in your home or yard.
