11:31 am
and welcome to in good shape a walk through the great old dogs can be fun but it can be dangerous too because there are predators there are snakes and there are takes. that hour for up blood as ticks burrow into our skin to get it they can infect us with viruses and bacteria one common disease transmitted by ticks is lyme borreliosis or lyme disease a typical sign is a red ring that forms on the skin in the days after the bite. ticks often found in tool grass where they lie and white for hosts. that's true of the typical carriers of lyme disease like the deer tick the tiger tick.
11:32 am
which a white spread in north. wales by contrast. areas of europe asia and africa. for their victims to come a long. distance says to several 100. they can transmit. the often fatal crimean. migrating. and climate change. to expand into regions where they didn't live in the past and with. dangerous pathogens. luckily there not only dangerous creatures lacking but interesting people like dr howard on and he's the right person to talk to today.
11:33 am
about. the. dr how to get on your from the robot call in situ it from the. book in the woods in nature and you're running around with a white flag collecting ticks while you're doing that. exists in the last year groups were often drawn the more exotic to expiate. of all and you want to know what dick's p.c.'s and they make in germany and the 2nd reason is to see when the ticks are active or whole the per ton of security is changing by the climate change because. the last 2 years of extreme and we have seen that. some ticks piece has been gone and security.
11:34 am
experience is increased thank you. so. you want to have an overview of alters material steps and there are more than 900 different species of ticks some of them opposing this and others are transmitting diseases after mosquitoes takes other most dangerous vector for diseases. ticks can be found all around the world a range of different species but they all drink blood while males are simply say their own appetite females need larger quantities in order to for mag's. biologist hans tao to spend years examining takes in germany. the higher law must arise he is a relatively new. a rival with research showing the ticks of spent the winter in germany for the 1st time ever they could well become native to the country. the higher law is very large compared to other tick species and has completely
11:35 am
different behavioral patterns it is a relentless hunter. even active of. it's a very active pursuer there's film footage of them covering up to 500 meters while following a host for up to a quarter of an hour there as fast as wouldn't. hire nama is already a known menace in other countries. this take originates from the eastern mediterranean word spreads crimean congo hemorrhagic fever. that's on earth a really nasty you'll know soon can be fatal and so the fear now is that this tick could bring the virus with it over here to lift us smitty's or take it off his fear was. but the higher lama specimens discovered so far in germany have not carried the highly dangerous fever. in a good some not all the documentation we have on high or low magicks not
11:36 am
a single case of crimean congo hemorrhagic fever was found but we need to be vigilant. in the northern hemisphere ticks are primarily associated with another illness lyme disease or borreliosis its pathogens are spiral shaped bacteria called directly or indirectly or can lead to inflammation and cause arthritis for example link and they can cause my account itis inflammation of cardiac muscle and they can lead to inflammation in the brain and trigger a neurological manifestation of lyme disease and on and off for. most takes here wait on bush's and long grass to latch on to hosts if they go unnoticed and aren't removed. use that soul like teeth to make an incision into the target skin it takes another 12 hours for the bacteria to be transmitted. done kind of. early or might manifest in the skin in the 1st stage.
11:37 am
of the whole next you see an expanding rash calderas the migrans. if you detect that in time and take antibiotics then you're pretty safe. but in some cases there is no rash and the disease remains undetected. a rare a disease is a tick borne encephalitis tb which can affect the brain and central nervous system it's more difficult to treat the only real protection is vaccination. it's important to weigh up the risks for yourself depending on how often you come into contact with ticks. you might live in germany and also travel frequently to other places in europe also it might make sense to get a tb vaccination for them in from. out of the species of tick the best protection against the diseases they transmit is to avoid getting bitten in the 1st place. it makes sense to cover up and also to use
11:38 am
a tick repellent. if you do get removed to take without delay to reduce the risk of infection but careful so you don't squash it. so we keep in front of it and we're looking for takes actually so this is the right place to find ticks it's a small like a meadow. normally is a tick. tick so it is limited in its. forest. crossland best. but for. some pics or take pics it's coming from the area. it's we try and. hot and there for all. problems who live in the us it's normal to spot and they
11:39 am
make and sort of area of attics. existing as wider than before so now we're looking for ticks and we're using this white flak so how do you do that if you take it and evade to take in the ambush no yeah so you are morally simulating someone who is going through the forests basically take a look actually caught something. like that ok what we've got here i mean you look like in the book we start in the left and we don't lose any take in if you look for example you can do that is the most important pick stage because it's more and your dog if i if it's biting but it can conceal all. diseases occurring in jong il ok so they can feed from 5 to 7 days and in this time inside of victoria. they can transmit
11:40 am
a lot of genes and the infection rate is. so what kind of disease is transmitted by ticks i mean the most important the most important. to born disease enjoy means is lyme disease so it's caused by a young boy able to off into sick and come to see us in germany is tb that is transmitted mainly in. saul's of. which is a virus is a city and so we have looked area to. put it gene so it's most important is what we look at schools in the world and. disease is one of them has to be does important in juba most important poured into it but worldwide it can call a mark it's almost a point but a. disease by ticks so if i take
11:41 am
a look here at the tics and if some of them would sting me everything bite me and how long would it take for empty chair transmission of the pathogens it depends on the part of being cared for to genes normally needed time to one of the body of the tick in the most part and then is transmitters this can need to for 24 hours and johnny book a year for example needs at least 67 hours to google and to be dangerous for infecting but this would mean if i would realize that there's a tick on me and i would just simply remove it that there's no risk of getting this infection then there's at least to this is we could use it as it's very important for me to remove the tick as fast as it was 1st as possible and not seeing a doctor just rip it out in if you know that you are was in some moss at home you can do it at home with forceps of tot about in the fours if
11:42 am
you know you need 20 last who would you do it immediately and for good things is that i am always close to a doctor just so what you see here is. a. good source take this vent if it's biting you realize for it fast because its core and up to one centimeter and. it's quite prominent and paul you knew who it was in the one to 12 days of the seeing and. this is not only dangerous stage of the tip of the interstate just. one of the more dangerous diseases is the line disease transmitted by ticks which is kind of a dangerous disease and you cannot always heal it especially if it's not diagnosed properly. taking the dog out for a walk has become
11:43 am
a rare pleasure for cattle yessing she needs painkillers to bear even a 15 minute stroll. from the target is different from one day to the next sometimes i am able to do a quick round with my dog maybe 2 or 3 kilometers but then there are days when the pain in my joints is so severe that i just can't go out every step is painful that . whole yessing suffers from chronic lyme disease a single bite from a tick turned her life upside down and she can't even say when it happened said my niece. i don't know how long i've had lyme disease countries and i have no recollection of any by that and never found a tick mr. it and i didn't have the typical red rash there form. the ring shape drash is often the 1st indication of having been bitten the tick saliva that causes the reaction contains a natural an ascetic that prevents the host from feeling the bite. once infected
11:44 am
with lyme disease you probably start getting headaches within a few days and pains in your joints that spread through your body. the length snaps and the subtle death and it's a stabbing pain in my shoulder and this is it is someone is stabbing me with a knife from here at the front but i'm still. on the muscle ache in my shin also feels like someone's trying to sever the muscles to them all so sometimes it might only last a few minutes a month and on that sometimes it goes on for hours. it's often misdiagnosed as with couple yessing for a long time doctor suspected after writers but the pain intensified and seemed atypical for that diagnosis. like condition or worse and. then i started to become extremely tired. and depressed as well but saw.
11:45 am
such as dancing hiking and cycling were no longer possible the slightest jolt could become unbearable her old life was gradually disappearing. on down come down then my g.p. had an idea that she asked whether i had been checked for a line disease and that it was 10 years later. the tests showed she had the corresponding antibodies and that led to the right diagnosis but a course of antibiotics failed to bring about long term relief she has to live with the pain which she is only able to enjoy with strong medication and the support of a self-help group. anything i can do to prevent being bitten by a tick because i have to be outside here in nature and i don't want to set some moods to conform or follow to prevent to be bitten by a take for example to move all this on per se that was sent on the
11:46 am
fix sold it to pigs are not able to run over it and of course fix not able to bite you. in the margins of the purposes of this awful cross and only because of costs that can be fixed you have to prevent to go inside the high gloss and. to go in areas where the ticks are quite common and. not. the point is to you are cold so this should be. shoes. hoboes and protecting your food and long tall grass and long sleeves i even see sometimes people going around in the forest and they put their trousers into their socks so it's a great way to protect the good yes it's a great day but it's important because. normally it takes away for me down stairs
11:47 am
up stairs if an instinct to go up and so they go inside the trollers and. climb up to us and to the head if you want what about those chemical v. paladins you can buy they have. the i had food you have 2 types of character the pulling one that you can put strike you on the skin into another type is to put it on the told us that protect the poison or take the ones that you you put on the skin is smelling really bad fodder for the take and for this reason they don't come to you and they don't bite you and if he didn't bite you i just put it out but we have to twist it out. the pigs knows who's sole you don't want school you put them all to study. movement and. this is most sure a message to get them out even not. that something is for many inside the skin but
11:48 am
even if something is remaining it's not dangerous you put them all you do disaffection and then you also. place here that the gift and in case of changing in the biting side you go to a physician and to see him even if you rip off the head and the head state stays inside the scheme there's no danger attached to that knowledge is no danger it's only the. skin thems that is putting it all out and there's no more but a gene inside the head so that there's no high office of addiction i think it's you know and whatever children the most important. seem to have to do is to to look after the votes of all decide whether they have a bit but to use or they're asked to. takes on the skin and the reality could buy
11:49 am
and. it's easy if you do is show off of that odd side and there's a show even takes it looking for for biting side washed away so that. this is show you have 2 things you can do you can. push to take survey but you can even look in the places where you don't normally see. in their clothes with for the ticks and what about pets i mean i have 2 dogs you can see dogs they're doing this to take a look at the pets when i'm home if there are some ticks on them because it's really important dogs and horses boys are able to get lyme disease and even t.v. so that is a. called for tricks after you were all tired. and come back thanks so much for this interesting talk and if you know scared of nature and want to stay inside use your time right and turn on the computer and write your
