Defenses Against Spotted Fever
North Carolina 'reports the
highest number of Rocky Mountain
Spotted Fever cases in the United
States.
Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever
is caused by an organism called
Rickettsia. Rickettsia and is trans
mitted to man in the eastern part of
the USA by the bite of the dog tick.
Only a small percentage of the dog
ticks carries Rocky Mountain
Spotted Fever. Transmission of the
disease from a bite does not often
occur unless the tick has been
attached for more than six hours.
Persons who are outdoors much
of the time should wear protective
clothing and check themselves
frequently for ticks, paying special
attention to the head. Most com
mercial insect repellents are some
what effective against ticks. Pesti
cides such as Sevin Dust are
effective when applied at a rate of
two pounds of pesticide per acre.
Pets should be checked fre
quently. Any attached ticks should
be removed. Your pets should be
treated with acceptable formula
tions recommended by your Veter
inarian. The county Agricultural
Extension Agent (875-3461) can
also advise you on pesticides to use
in your pets' quarters.
Ticks should be removed from
the skin by using tweezers and
gently pulling. If this fails, use a
heated needle to it until it lets go.
Wash the bite area with soap and
water and apply antiseptic such as
alcohol. Do not squeeze the tick as
its body fluids or feces may enter
your skin through natural openings
or microscopic breaks in skin.
Destroy the tick by burning it or
flushing down a commode. Wash
your hands well with soap and
