How the Boy Scouts of America Prep For Tick Season
WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — People aren’t the only ones going out and about with temperatures rising. According to the Kansas State Research and Extension Office, ticks are already showing up.
For many who don’t spend as much time outside, ticks aren’t as much of an everyday concern. For others, like the Boy Scouts of America, they’re unavoidable.
