Protect yourself against ticks during outdoor activities (see factsheet mosquito and tick bite protection). Vaccination against TBE is recommended for (planned) stays in endemic areas (CH: throughout Switzerland except cantons of Geneva and Ticino).
After recreational activities: Always examine your body for ticks or tick bites. If redness appears at least 3 days (7-10 days on average) after tick bite: consult a physician to rule out erythema migrans (Lyme disease), which would require antibiotic treatment.
