Crimeans were warned about the early awakening of ticks

Residents Crimea and Sevastopol began to apply to medical institutions with tick bites. So far, there have been isolated cases, but Rospotrebnadzor warned that a warm and snowless winter contributes to the early awakening of dangerous insects.

Ixodes mites become active in spring when snow falls and the air temperature is above +1...+3 degrees to + 10 degrees. For the middle part of the country, this is usually the beginning of April, but in the south, you should be careful right now.

As IA writes SevastopolMedia, arthropods have also woken up in Stavropol, Kuban, Rostov and Kaliningrad regions. Registered in January 2025 almost a hundred bites.

The experts interviewed urge to get vaccinated now — if you get vaccinated against tick-borne diseases in the spring, that is, as usual, then the immune system will not have time to form.
