How to Kill a Tick

Gemäß dieser Schülerin, die eine Versuchsreihe machte, sind Zecken nach fünf Minuten im Trockner bei milder Hitze tot zu kriegen
Wohingegen eine Stunde in der Waschmaschine nicht unbedingt ausreichend sein muß.

The research exposed the tick's extreme sensitivity to heat and/or dessication in a dryer. After repeated trials, all blacklegged ticks were killed in only five minutes on a low heat cycle. Ticks survived fluff cycles, but quickly succumbed when heat was applied. Although a washing machine is ineffective in cleaning ticks from clothing, the use of a clothes dryer can quickly and thoroughly assure that clothing is free of the common pests.
