067_tick.jpg A sheep tick with another smaller tick attached to it. These blood sucking parasites are getting more common due to climate change, as milder winters mean moreof them survive. They carry lymes desease, the incidence of which in the human population is on the increase

IMG_0018_tick.jpg A ticke removed by a specialist tick removal device. Climate change has lead to warmer winters and better survival rates for ticks. As a result they have become far more common and widespread in the UK. The rates of Lymes disease which the ticks carry have increased dramatically in recent years. One of many health issues that climate change poses.

IMG_9830)disease.jpg A sheep tick that fed off a pet dog. These parasites will attach to humans and pets and can carry diseases like Lymes disease and encephalitis. Many species of tick are becoming more common as milder winters enable them to survive more easily. Ticks are highly sensitive to temperature change and are unable to survive in cold environments. Many pathogens and diseases that affect humans are spreading as a result of warmer conditions brought on by climate change. Recent studies have shown that tick activity is prolonged by shorter milder winters allowing them to infect greater numbers of hosts. They are also spreading northwards.
