Ticks don’t care about calendars or caution tape. These tiny parasites can lurk in tall grass, wooded trails, or the frame of a manicured lawn, turning routine tasks into hidden health risks. Outdoor workers face them regularly landscapers, utility crews, surveyors, and groundskeepers. Without awareness, exposure becomes inevitable. Understanding the behaviors, environments, and transmission potential of ticks is the first critical step to avoid preventable illness. Vigilance matters, especially when bites can lead to complex, long-term conditions.
