From how to identify snakes to how to protect yourself from mosquitos and ticks.

To reduce your chances of being bitten by a tick, Croasdale recommends using a bug spray that contains DEET — the CDC has afind an anti-tick spray that fits your needs. Be sure to tucki your pants into your socks, and do a thorough tick check upon getting home.

Upon finding them, don’t treat these tiny bloodsuckers as a band-aid. Ripping ticks off or yanking them from your skin can result in infections and increase your chances of contracting diseases.

Don’t attempt touching them or picking them up.

For some adventurers this might not be a deterrent, but due to the nature of rivers, currents can rapidly put folks in a precarious situation.

These comically obvious words come from the Twitter account of the National Park Service, who has been hitting it out of the park lately (get it?) with its social media content.
