Mouse with ticks
Minimizing Tick Exposure and Monitoring for Ticks on the Landscape
- Friday, July 13, 2018, 10:00 AM - 3:30 PM
This workshop is for municipalities and volunteer/community groups interested in monitoring for ticks and tracking local tick populations over time. As ticks and tick-borne-illnesses continue to be an increasing concern, several communities have started to monitor for ticks once or twice a year to establish some knowledge about local populations. Having trained municipal staff and community volunteers is essential if communities would like to engage in this activitiy.
