Dr.
Robert Lane, leading tick and Lyme disease entomologist, professor at
UC Berkeley, advises to avoid sitting or leaning against trees, sitting
on logs, or gathering wood, notably in
dense forests. These are the most direct ways of contracting Lyme
disease through infected ticks. Bathing two hours after exposure to
dense, damp woods can aid in prevention of Lyme disease and
co-infections. Sign and share to demand improved education, legislation,
and funding of chronic Lyme and co-infections: https://www.change.org/p/barack-obama-legalize-lyme-disease
