The proliferation of ticks in various areas of the province of Granada, including rural zones and parks, has generated concern among residents and health authorities. These arachnids, commonly found in grasslands, forests, and gardens, can transmit various diseases to humans and animals.
Public health experts emphasize the importance of taking precautions, particularly during the months when these parasites are most active. They recommend using repellents, thoroughly checking the body after outdoor activities, and consulting a doctor for any suspicious bites.
“"Prevention is key to avoiding the transmission of diseases such as Lyme disease or tick-borne encephalitis."
Local authorities are monitoring the situation and promoting awareness campaigns to inform the public about the risks associated with ticks and the preventive measures that should be adopted to minimize exposure.
