VT Officials Warn Residents To Ready For Tick Season

Vermont officials are warning citizens to beware for ticks, reports WCAX.

While peak season for ticks are more than a month away, ticks have begun popping up throughout the region. Officials say to keep away from tall grass and bushy areas when possible, while wearing long pants and long sleeves when venturing into forested areas.

VT Fish and Wildlife remind citizens to check themselves and their pets for ticks when returning for walks outside.
