Do You Know How to Protect Yourself?
Prevent Tick Bites and Lyme Disesase In this season there are plenty of unwelcome intruders waiting for us on
every step. The main cause is the last winter being too mild and failing to kill them off, and so they multiply and bother us more and more. Luckily, we know just how one can protect oneself from ticks in a natural and effective way.

1/ Make a DIY repellent. Mix beer yeast (if you don’t have it, just use a normal one from the grocery store), fresh garlic and flax oil. Cover the entire body with this mixture, and especially the legs as far as the knees.
icks can be found all over forests, fields and meadows. Every year the media tells us about the dangers of the diseases ticks carry in their bite. The only solution offered is vaccination, yet the manufacturers tend to obfuscate the negative side effects that may express themselves after the application of the vaccination. An effective prevention is hard to find. So how do we make ticks avoid us? First and foremost, keep in mind that not even the best recipe will ever be completely tick-proof. Either way, we can certainly lower the risks a tick bite carries into the human body, and by a large measure.
2/ If the previous tip seems a bit too much, you can also use a variety of natural means. Some of those entail using repellent herbs like lavender, mint, rosemary or cedar. Any one of these herbs (or a combination of them) can work well in the making of a strong infusion, which can be then used to cover our body before going outside. Once again, this should be used especially on the legs.
