Hiking - tick prevention on baby stroller?
lvtwoboard asked:
I was hiking in the local area. A friend that was with me found a tick in her ear. I want to know what I should look for in regards to my stroller that I was using during the hike. The child looks to be clear but I want to make sure I take precautions with his stroller. Any suggestions?

Avon’s skin so soft is a great tick repellent (I don’t know why it works, it just does) and is a lot easier on the skin then some of the bug sprays. Try rubbing some of the stroller, it shouldn’t affect it too much and try to use a mesh bug protector. After your done, strip the clothes from your child and check your baby over. A lot of time you can find ticks before they embed themselves in your skin, but the trick is to find them early.

Make sure your stroller has a mesh cover so no ticks or other bugs will get to your baby.
Look I found these ones :
You can find them at Walmart or Target
