Love exploring the outdoors in the Portland area?

Multnomah County, Oregon has reported higher-than-normal tick activity, including but not limited to Powell Butte Nature Park. While health experts say the risk of tick-borne disease in Multnomah County remains very low, take a few simple precautions.

If you’re visiting any outdoor areas where insects thrive, we recommend that you:

- Wear long sleeves and pants
- Tuck pant legs into socks
- Wear closed-toe shoes
- Stay on designated trails
- Avoid tall grass and brush
- Use an EPA-registered repellent containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus

After your visit, check yourself, children, pets, and gear for ticks. Pay close attention to the scalp, behind the ears, under the arms, behind the knees, and other warm areas of the body.

If you find an attached tick, remove it promptly with fine-tipped tweezers. Clean the bite area, then monitor for symptoms such as a rash, fever, headache, body aches, or fatigue. Contact your healthcare provider if symptoms develop.

Powell Butte Nature Park - and all city parks and natural areas - remain open for visitors to enjoy.
