If you find a tick inside your house, here's what you need to know.

Steps of protection
To protect yourself from ticks, wear long-sleeved gloves and clothing that cover your skin. This will reduce the risk of a tick attaching to you.

Cleaning carefully
Ticks can hide in clothes, bedding, and even cracks and corners of your home. Therefore, it is important to carefully clean any area or element with which the tick has come into contact. Wash your clothes and high-fire bedding to kill ticks that might hide. Pass the vacuum cleaner over the affected area, paying particular attention to cracks and corners.
