Tick populations are expanding across the U.S., leading to increased emergency room visits for tick bites and the spread of diseases like alpha-gal syndrome. The lone star tick, once limited to the Southeast, has aggressively expanded its range, while states vary in their surveillance and public education efforts to address the growing threat.

Tick season is expanding in the U.S., with increased emergency room visits for tick bites and the spread of disease-carrying species like the lone star tick. States are struggling to monitor tick populations and associated risks as surveillance efforts and public health responses vary widely.

Tick season is lengthening as ticks spread beyond historic ranges, leading to increased emergency room visits for tick bites. States are enhancing surveillance and public education efforts to track disease-carrying ticks like the lone star tick, which is linked to alpha-gal syndrome and other illnesses.

Tick populations are expanding across the U.S., leading to increased emergency room visits for tick bites and concerns about tick-borne diseases. The lone star tick, now found beyond the Southeast, is linked to alpha-gal syndrome, while states vary in their surveillance and public education efforts to address the growing risk.

Tick populations are expanding across the U.S., leading to higher emergency room visits for tick bites. The lone star tick, linked to alpha-gal syndrome and other diseases, has expanded beyond the Southeast, prompting states like Massachusetts, Missouri, and Oklahoma to enhance surveillance and public education efforts.

Tick season is expanding across the U.S., with rising emergency room visits for tick bites and spreading tick populations carrying diseases like Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and alpha-gal syndrome.

Tick bites are surging in Pennsylvania and the US, with emergency department visits reaching their highest levels since 2017. Experts attribute the increase to warmer climates enabling ticks to spread to previously colder regions, raising risks for tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease and Alpha-gal syndrome.

Tick bites are surging in the US this year, with emergency department visits reaching their highest levels since 2017 in April and remaining elevated through June. Experts attribute the increase to geographic expansion of tick habitats due to rising temperatures and warn of heightened risks for tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease and Alpha-gal syndrome.

Tick bites in the US are surging, with emergency department visits reaching a five-year high in April 2026. Rising temperatures and geographic expansion of tick habitats, linked to climate change, are contributing to increased tick activity and associated diseases like Lyme disease and Alpha-gal syndrome.
