A simple outdoor activity could be enough to put you at risk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Here are a few simple steps to reduce your chances of exposure:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>During outdoor activities:&nbsp;<br><\/strong>1\ufe0f. Wear long, light-colored, and covering clothing.&nbsp;<br>2\ufe0f. Use insect repellent containing DEET or icaridin.&nbsp;<br>3\ufe0f. Stick to clear and marked trails.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>After the activity:&nbsp;<br><\/strong>1\ufe0f. Carefully check your entire body \u2014 even hard-to-see areas.&nbsp;<br>2\ufe0f. Take a shower or bath within two hours of returning indoors.&nbsp;<br>3\ufe0f. Inspect your clothing and gear \u2014 put them in the dryer on high heat to kill any ticks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>If you are bitten by a tick:&nbsp;<br><\/strong>Remove it promptly and keep it in a container. Then call Info-Sant\u00e9 811 or speak to your pharmacist to see if preventive antibiotics are needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To view the report from the <em>Direction
