“Surprise awaits this region (Moscow and the region) in the behavior of insects. Some species of them will be born earlier and pose a danger to people already in March-April, but this applies, first of all, to a forest tick, whose bites are extremely dangerous for humans, ”he told the agency.
According to him, other insects will also be ready to harm plants. To combat them, acaricidal treatment of forests and parks should be carried out, as well as wearing closed clothing when hiking in the forest in spring.
In January, the Rospotrebnadzor warned that because of the warm winter in Russia, isolated cases of tick activation were possible.
Also, Realnoe Vremya reported that the bears Thomas and Masha woke up in the Kazan zoo due to warm weather.
