Prevention to follow

Take a shower when you get back home to prevent Lyme disease: woman taking shower.

Shower and wash your clothes for Lyme Disease

Shower and wash your clothes immediately after coming back from outdoors because this may wash off ticks before they attach to the skin.

In case the ticks get in contact with the skin, they might transmit Lyme disease.
