Veterinarian advises dog owners to take measures to prevent tick bites. Doctor of Veterinary Sciences, Professor of the Department of Veterinary Medicine at ROSBIOTECH University Andrei Rudenko emphasized in a conversation with RT that ticks begin to show their activity when daytime temperatures rise above zero.

Rudenko: "The tick itself is not dangerous; it is only a carrier of a number of diseases, one of the most severe of which is babesiosis. This is a blood-parasitic disease, especially dangerous for dogs and other species of animals"
