Caution: ticks

Waskahegan member Ron Robertson posted this warning on our Facebook Group:

***ATTENTION HIKERS AND DOG OWNERS***

I was out for a walk today along middle Coal Lake which is just east of Leduc. I saw a couple of young rabbits and was able to get some photo’s of the two of them. When I got home and looked at the photo’s the two rabbits are covered with Ticks!

If you’re a land owner or if you are in any public areas along the lake and are walking your dogs, check them over really well for ticks before you bring them into the house.

If you’re out for a walk or hike, check your clothing so that you don’t bring these nasty little bugs home with you!

Thanks, Ron for posting this warning.

  1. Not a problem. I would hate to see someone get sick from a tick bite because here in this part of the province, we’ve never really had to worry about them before.
