What are ticks ?

Ticks are small parasites that can cause major problems. These arachnids are found mainly in wooded areas, meadows and gardens, and feed on the blood of animals, including humans. Although they are small in size, their impact on health can be serious, as they carry a variety of diseases.

The bite of a tick can go unnoticed, as they release an anaesthetic substance that often prevents the victim from feeling pain. However, it is essential to detect their presence early, as some ticks carry diseases such as Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis, which can lead to serious complications if not treated in time.

How do you combat ticks ?

To protect yourself from ticks, we advise you to wear long, light-coloured clothing when out in the countryside. You'll also find natural repellents at Penn'Ty bio that you can apply to your skin or textiles to protect yourself from bites. After a walk in the open air, don't forget to check your skin carefully for ticks and to remove them correctly with a tick remover, taking care not to leave the head of the tick in the skin.

This advice should also be applied to your dog after a walk in the open air. Carefully inspect your dog's coat for any ticks that may have stuck to it. This will enable you to spot them quickly and remove them before they become firmly attached to the skin. Don't forget to fit your dog with an anti-parasite collar or to apply a pipette from time to time to combat ticks, fleas or chinch bugs.

Finally, if you have a garden, consider planting tick-repellent herbs and plants such as mint, lavender, rosemary or lemongrass. This can help reduce the presence of ticks in your pet's environment.

If you notice symptoms such as fever, headache, joint or muscle pain after a tick bite, consult a health professional immediately. The earlier a tick-borne illness is diagnosed, the greater the chances of a full recovery.

Why use natural insecticides ?

Getting rid of ticks is one thing, but wouldn't it be even better if you could also protect your health and the environment? Did you know that some particles of conventional insecticides remain in your treated rooms for several months? Fumigants are the worst because the particles fall back onto all the objects, textiles and surfaces in the room. Unless you wash each item thoroughly, you'll inevitably end up with chemical substances. Opting for natural insecticides will not only get rid of ticks, but also, thanks to the composition of our products and their low persistence, enable you to continue living in a healthy environment.

Protect yourself from tick bites

Répulsif textile contre les tiques

Whether you are a hiking enthusiast, a simple Sunday walker or a rural adventurer, it is important to protect yourself from tick bites. The tick is everywhere and its population continues to grow every year. They settle on grasses and brush until they cling to a person or an animal. Ticks can transmit Lyme disease and meningoencephalitis to humans. It is therefore important to protect yourself against it.

The Aries textile tick repellent is a good solution to prevent them from clinging to your clothes and biting you. The composition based on geraniol and essential oils of thyme and sage, with their strong repellent effects, will keep them at bay and deter them from coming in with you and biting you. This product does not stain.

And because the effect of geraniol and thyme does not stop at ticks, this product will also repel other insects such as bees, wasps and ants. This textile anti-tick spray is the ideal product for travel, hiking, walks in the forest and camping trips.
