Why Humidity Affects Ticks in Peru
Ticks are highly sensitive to desiccation and require humidity above 70% to survive. When humidity spikes, tick activity increases dramatically as they can remain active longer on vegetation.
Recommended Action
Avoid tall grass and wooded edges during high humidity. Treat clothing with permethrin and use EPA-registered repellent.
