How to protect yourself from ticks year-round

How to protect yourself from ticks year-round

WASHINGTON -- Ticks can be active in any season and it's important to check for and remove the bloodsuckers as quickly as possible — especially after you've been outside hiking, gardening or enjoying nature. 'Humans are outside more in summer so we hear about more tick infections,' said Sam Telford, an infectious diseases expert at Tufts University. But he urges caution year-round because 'every season is tick season.' While tick populations vary a lot regionally, some Northeastern states including Maine, Massachusetts and Rhode Island are seeing 'above average' numbers of American dog ticks this year, said Telford. And New York state is seeing a higher number of reported deer tick bites this year than last year, said Saravanan Thangamani, who studies tick-borne diseases at SUNY Upstate Medical University. Ticks, like mosquitos, need to feed on blood. But instead of a quick prick, they are slow feeders – with hooked mouth parts that attach into the skin of deer, rabbits, dogs and people. There are many different species of ticks found globally and only some spread germs that can make people sick. A main worry is blacklegged ticks, also called deer ticks, which can spread Lyme disease. Once found mainly in New England and pockets of the Midwest, the ticks are now present over a wider range. A tick bite doesn't always lead to illness. 'If you remove a tick within 24 hours of attachment, it's fairly unlikely that you will get infected,' said Telford. Ticks are usually found low to the ground, in leaf litter or grassy areas. Check your clothing for ticks and do a full-body check including under the arms and behind ears, knees and hair. 'If you're out all day long, try to do a quick check for ticks every few hours,' said Bobbi Pritt at the Mayo Clinic. 'When you go back inside, take a shower. That will wash off any unattached ticks, and you're also more likely to spot any other ticks." Use tweezers to remove the tick and grasp it as close to the skin as possible to pull from the head. If you don't have them handy, you can also use your fingernails, the edge of a credit card or any semi-sharp object. The best approach is to minimize tick exposure altogether. Bug sprays containing ingredients such as DEET can be sprayed on exposed skin to ward off ticks and mosquitos, said Telford. Wear long sleeves and pants, and you can also spray clothing with repellents containing permethrin, a chemical similar to a natural ingredient in chrysanthemums that makes ticks avoid the flowers. Don't forget to pay attention to outdoor pets. Medications can prevent fleas and ticks from attaching to a dog's skin. But it's still a good idea to check the fur after being outside. 'Wherever pets can't easily groom themselves, that's where the ticks will be – on the ears, around the muzzle area, under the collar, between the toes,' said Thangamani. Dogs and cats roaming outdoors can also bring ticks into the house. 'If pets bring ticks in, a tick can live in the house for months until it finds its next blood meal,' which could be another household member, he said. After removing the tick, keep an eye on the skin around the bite. If a rash or flu-like symptoms appear within several days or weeks, see a doctor. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not recommend tick testing because results may not be reliable. ___

Top housing official sends Fed Chair Powell blunt message on mortgage rates

American homeowners and aspiring homebuyers are exhausted by mortgage rates that are the highest in this century. With 30-year fixed mortgages at 6.77% on June 26, the housing industry is stagnant: no buyers, no sellers, and – an important economic indicator – lagging new construction. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter U.S. Housing FHFA Director William J. Pulte, echoing his boss President Donald Trump, puts the blame squarely on Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. Related: Fed chair sends strong message on tariffs to Senate panel Pulte ratcheted up criticism of Powell this week, first calling for his resignation and then delivering a powerful personal rebuke on June 27. Image source: Bloomberg/Getty Images Pulte, also the head of Fannie Mae, is the grandson of the founder of the mega homebuilder PulteGroup and formerly served on PulteGroup's board of directors. The U.S. housing market is especially brutal right now for first-time homebuyers, who can barely afford down payments, since supply shortages have propped up home prices. The median price for a new home exceeded $407,000 in April, up from $310,000 in 2020. The average mortgage payment also doubled to $2,207 in 2024, according to Bankrate, leaving first-time buyers struggling to keep up. Related: Fannie Mae chief Pulte sends savage one-word message to Fed's Powell Privately-owned housing starts in May were at a seasonally adjusted rate of 1,256,000. This is 9.8% below the revised April estimate. The Northeast, South, and Midwest saw declines, while the West saw an increase. The Fed's dual mandate is to prudently monitor monetary policy to maintain inflation (at about 2%) and keep unemployment relatively low to ensure the recession-free economy and its GDP are humming along. It's a delicate balance. The Federal Open Meeting Committee controls the Federal Funds Rate, which banks charge each other overnight to borrow money. At the June meeting, the funds rate stayed at 4.25% to 4.50%. The last funds rate cut was in December 2024. The funds rate is tied to the cost of borrowing money for consumers, investors, and businesses. Related: Fed official predicts when to expect interest rate cuts Mortgage rates typically run 2% to 3% higher than the 10-year Treasury note yield, and the Fed Funds Rate highly influences the 10-year yield. As a result, 30-year mortgage rates have risen to roughly 6.8% from 2.7% in early 2021. The average mortgage payment also doubled to $2,207 between 2020 and 2024. At the time of the June Fed meeting, Powell said the post-pandemic economy was resilient and stable, but the risk of tariff inflation on prices on the nation's supply chain prompted a "wait-and-see" approach to holding rates steady. He repeated those assertions to both the House and Senate panels this week, adding that the expected inflation from the tariffs would likely bubble up into economic indicators for June and July. If interest rates drop, so will mortgage rates, Pulte said in a June 27 CNBC interview. Powell "can hallucinate about what tariffs can do,'' but he's wrong, Pulte said. "That's why we need the 'Fake High Priest of the Fed'...to lower rates,'' Pulte said. More Federal Reserve: Fed interest rate cut decision resets forecasts for the rest of this yearFederal Reserve prepares strong message on long-term interest ratesFed official revamps interest-rate cut forecast for this year Large, medium, and small construction companies are all hurting from the housing crisis, Pulte said. Publicly traded builders are not immune, he added. "The American people are sick and tired,'' said Pulte, who earlier called for Powell to resign. President Trump's proposed tariffs – essentially an external sales tax to U.S. trading partners that we pay one way or another – face a July 9 deadline. The president, during a press conference in the White House Briefing Room on June 27, re-hashed his displeasure over high interest rates, calling Powell "just not a very smart person." The next Fed meeting is July 29-30. Both Fed and market watchers had forecast the next probable rate cut could appear at the central bank's September FOMC meeting.
