🌞 Summer Wildlife Watch: What to Know and How to Help
As temperatures climb, so do the risks and responsibilities when it comes to local wildlife and pests. Here’s what to keep in mind:

🦟 Mosquitoes
More than just a nuisance, mosquitoes can carry serious illnesses like Zika and West Nile virus. Protect yourself by using insect repellent, wearing long sleeves, and covering standing water around your home.

🕷️ Ticks
These tiny hitchhikers can transmit Lyme disease and other infections. Stay safe by wearing protective clothing during hikes or yard work, and always check yourself and your pets after spending time outdoors.

🕸️ Spiders
Most are harmless and even helpful, but some species can bite and cause irritation. Keep your space spider-free by clearing away clutter, woodpiles, and unused outdoor furniture.

🐦 Wildlife & Dehydration
Extreme heat affects animals too. Birds, squirrels, and other creatures may struggle to find water. Consider placing shallow dishes of clean water in shaded areas to support your local wildlife.
