I received my April Newsletter from Penn State Cooperative Extension office today, and I thought that this article about ticks was timely as I recently had a discussion with some friends who were surprised that their dogs were already coming in covered in ticks. The long, cold winter and slow start to spring has everyone thinking that the ticks are also slow to come to the surface but it is time to break out the Frontline for your pets!
If you live in southern Chester County, you know that Lyme Disease is a very real and valid threat to all of us nature lovers. At TLC, we want you to #GetOutside and enjoy all of the beauty nature has to offer but want you to be aware and informed! This article has a lot of great information about the life cycle and transmission of Lyme disease! We want you to be informed and then join TLC on the land at one of our upcoming Programs, Events, or Volunteer opportunities! It is Earth Month!!
