Abstract in brief

  • The blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis, is a key vector responsible for transmitting seven different human diseases in the U.S., including Lyme disease and Powassan virus disease.
  • Over the past twenty years, the range of this tick and the number of related human disease cases have both increased significantly, making it a growing public health issue.
  • Currently, preventing these diseases is difficult because there are no human vaccines and limited evidence on effective control methods, with the text discussing potential future strategies.]

Ticks create trouble around the world; Canada is not immune. NS is a tick hotbed and this video from McMaster University (Hamilton) presents valuable information. Ticks on pets are especially important to address. And yes - they're likely in your yard! https://t.co/LFYxjGNHu4
