Ticks don’t jump or fly. They hitch a ride. 🎒

A tick may climb onto your child when they brush against grass, leaves or low vegetation, then crawl around looking for a warm, hidden place to attach.

After outdoor play, hiking, gardening or even time in the backyard, remember to check the easy-to-miss places:

• In and around the hair and scalp
• Behind and around the ears
• Under the arms
• Around the waist and belly button
• Behind the knees
• Between the legs

Found one attached? Don’t panic, and don’t reach for petroleum jelly, nail polish or a match. Remove it promptly using the proper technique.

Take a look at this step-by-step guide from HealthyChildren.org so you’ll know exactly what to do when you find a tick. Link in the comments. 👇

Have questions about a bite, a rash or symptoms after a tick exposure? Growing With You Pediatrics is here to help. We are accepting new patients ages 0–21.
