"TICKS ARE HERE"
SAYS HEALTH DEPT.


Five cases Of Rocky Mountain
spotted fayeT - t.-N-Dite fever -
were reported TO the State Depart
ment of Health from widely separ-
ated parts Of Maryland during the
month Of May. There were two
deaths from the disease.
The temperance OF the disease
which is caused by the bite of
infected ticks-bring a reminder
from Dr.. R. H. Riley. director of
the State Department of Health, of
precautions that should be follow
ed by all whose work or pleasure
takes them into tick-infested areas.
fortunately" Dr.. Riley said,
not all ticks are infected. but it
is better to regard all of them as
potential source of danger. and
to act accordingly.
ANY ticks found on the body
should be removed as soon as pos
sihle.
The American dog tick that fas-
tens itself to horses. dogs and cat
The Hagerstown globe., 1941-06-06

tie as we'll as to human beings, is
generally responsible for tick-bite
fever in this part Of the country.
The disease is contracted thru
The bite Of the infected insects. or
by crushing the insects and absorb
ing the infectious material into
the system through a scratch. or
open cut. or break in the skin. The
disease does not spread from per
sCl to person.
VERY great care should be taken
to crush out any OF the infectious
material on the hands in removing
the ticks from any part of the
body, or in taking them off of dogs
or horses or cattle
If the insect is deeply embedded
use small forceps or protect the
fingers with bit of paper or cot,
ton. Swab the place from which
the tick was withdrawn with 10
dine Dip the fingers and forceps
in alcohol afterwards and wash the
hands thoroughly with soap and
water. \ drop Of crude oil or mo-
tor Oil may be of help in withdraw
ing ticks from dogs or cattle.
"A careful inspection of the en-
tire body and Of the clothing
should be made twice a day if you
are employed in tick-infested
area, or are picnicking or camping.
Children who play in uncleared
lands should be given particular at
tention. Children are likely to be
bitten back of the ears. on the
neck, or on the head under the
hair. Don't overlook any of these
hiding places in your inspections.
Underground and weeds should
be cut out along paths leading to
bathing pools and shores in tick
infested areas. Spray the trails
around the settlement with cresote
Oil. Remove or burn debris.
In its early stages tick-bite
fever may be confused with influ-
enza, measles, meningitis, typhoid,
or typhus fever. On that account
a doctor should be called promptly
if suspicious symptoms develop
after a person has been exposed
to ticks. Laboratory tests are of
value in confirming the diagnosis" "
