## Resource

In this episode we have Dr. Grant Woods on the podcast to talk everything about ticks. Back in the day in Michigan it didn’t seem like you had to worry about ticks at all. Now it’s completely different. Tick populations seem to be exploding in areas where they didn’t used to be. There is also a huge rise in lyme decease and alpha gal. Dr. Grant shares some super practical advice on how to avoid getting ticks on you and how to avoid having them in your yard. He also shares some helpful insight on what to do if you get one on you. You can still enjoy the outdoors even where there are ticks and Grant has some great tips to help with that!
