Hi Everyone! I found this article about protection against the TBE virus from a national survey which I found quite shocking! I have pasted it below for anyone interested: 3 IN 4 OUTDOORS HOLIDAYMAKERS DON’T PROTECT AGAINST TBE VIRUS Three-quarters of people taking outdoor activity...

It took my husband 10 years to get diagnosed as the early symptoms were missed....he was a very very active man, mountain climbing, biking, ice climbing and an operational Fireman....after talking to a volunteer from BADA he realised it was Lyme he had. He got tested and it was positive...the...

:lmao: did wonder, when I first started doing the shows some fowk thought I had had a miraculous recovery....:rolleyes: was rather amusing....sounds like you spoke to my hubby....it was a great show, considering it was one of those shows that everything went wrong from the minute we got on...

:):) that could have been our chairperson she is in a wheel chair. The reason I say that isn't that I'm worried about sitting down, but that show was done mostly by myself and my hubby. I have spinal issues and very rarely sit down at shows.....:naughty: If I sit down the chances of getting up...

We sure were busy at that show....did we remove a tick from you? A nest of eggs had hatched and the larval ticks were sure on the go that weekend.......:) don't suppose you remember who you spoke to....I'm on crutches, so kinda easy to spot.....:rolleyes:

Thanks for that Mark, one thing we feel very strongly about is not stopping people going and enjoying the great outdoors....last TBPW we contacted Primary Schools all over Britain, and have had a book written and printed by us. We got funding so that the school could request the book and we...

Ok bizarre question, but don't suppose you got any photos of the eggs as they hatched? We have been trying for years to get an adult female to lay her eggs, so we can get images. They can lay up to 3000 eggs,...:)

Please don't stop going to places. I have 5 gundogs and spend a lot of my time in the woods, which is a place the ticks love.

What you can do with the O'Tom tick twister is drill a hole through it and attach to your keys...near the top of the handle is a raised oval shape, if you have a dremmel drill, drill through that bit. It won't affect how the twister works.:D

Cheers, appreciate the link. I am a volunteer for BADA-UK and am covering the forums, so safe to say my head is swimming in tick info..:yikes: I will try to answer any questions as fast as I can... I see someone suggested washing clothes in Premethrin, or you could put it in a plastic bag and...

Hi guys, I volunteer for BADA-UK we raise awareness about ticks and the diseases they carry..mostly Lyme Disease. We run a Tick Bite Prevention Week (TBPW) every year, this year we are trying to hit as many relevant forums as we can to spread as much information as we can. below is a link to our...

It’s that time of year again folks! Ticks will soon be active so read on to find out how to stay protected! Ticks can carry harmful infections that can be transmitted to humans. It is estimated that each year around 3,000 people in the UK contract Lyme disease (Borreliosis) from a tick bite...
