Title edit
Tick-Borne Infections Council of North Carolina, Inc.
Description edit
Excerpted from the website:
- About Our Ticks
- Since the 1980s, the most aggressive tick in the Piedmont is the Lone Star. Deer ticks, more frequent along the coast, are uncommon in the piedmont. Dog ticks and wood ticks bite humans less frequently than the Lone Star. Tick bites are less common in the mountains at this point in time. Pets can get these diseases, too. In NC you can become infected with several different diseases through tick bites, sometimes from a single bite. The risk and type of infection varies with location, type of tick, season of the year, and the prevalence of the disease causing organisms in the various kinds of ticks. The prevalence of the various types of ticks that bite humans across North Carolina and the proportion that harbor disease causing bacteria in various parts of the state has not been studied in a systematic manner.
