A Health Alert On Ticks

There are a few reasons you may be seeing more ticks. And part of that is global warming. The fact that we've been going into more natural areas. The human population is expanding. So, we're going to encounter more wildlife. Also, we've seen an increase in tick presence in general in this state and believe that more tick borne diseases are coming this way. And every year, we see higher numbers of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses.
