I've Been Bitten By A Tick

Finding an attached tick early is vital.

Untreated tick-borne diseases can produce a wide range of symptoms, depending on the stage of infection. Know what to do if you've been bitten.

One Tick Bite Can Spread Multiple Diseases

A single tick bite can transmit many pathogens, causing serious illness. 

Tick diseases spread at different rates, so a tick attached for any amount of time can be a potential risk. Testing the tick can determine the diseases it might have.

You can contribute to research by signing up as a volunteer in clinical trials or donating blood, urine, or tissue samples to a bio bank.
