Camping and Boating insects tips

Fire Ants
These inflict dangerous insect bites only if you are sensitive or get stung by many (at least dozens) at once. The bite is very painful. Watch where you step or sit down if you are in fire ant territory.
Ticks
Ticks in the east and mid west can carry Lyme Disease. In the west they carry Colorado Fever and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. They usually are a threat early in the summer, or later at higher elevations. Tick bites become rare by the end of August. Check yourself a couple times daily for ticks (with a friend's help, if possible). Slowly pull them loose if they have already bitten you.More insect tips
