Vermont’s Lyme Spike and How to Stay Safe

Published 17 hours ago
Description

Vermont’s Lyme disease surge is fueled by ticks—and scientists are tracking them with drag flags in forests to stay ahead. Over 25,000 ticks collected show more than half carry Lyme, driving up cases and making Vermont a hotspot. This isn’t just local: tick-borne illnesses are spreading north, thanks to climate change, more trails, and better awareness. Stay safe outdoors by dressing right, using repellent, and killing ticks with heat—no need to stay inside.
