[Nonspecific prevention of tick-borne encephalitis and other tick-borne infections under the present conditions].
The present situation associated with the use of nonspecific preventive means against natural and focal tick-borne infections is analyzed. There is evidence that tick populations can be controlled using pesticides. Achieved considerable advances in enhancing the efficiency of individual protective means in humans against tick attack and suction are reported. It is suggested that these means may play a decisive role in the nonspecific prevention of tick-borne infections.
