Vermonters and visitors to the state can use this interactive Tick Tracker 2016
to share information about where and what kind of ticks they have found.
Places where ticks have been seen are marked by a tick icon.
Hover over or click on an icon for more information, such as date of the report, how many ticks were seen, what type of tick it was, and other comments posted by the reporter.
Please note that because tick locations and types are not necessarily provided by experts, the Vermont Department of Health cannot independently confirm the accuracy of each report.
Please keep in mind that just because ticks have not been reported in an area doesn’t mean they aren’t there. Always take precautions to prevent tick bites when outside in potential tick habitat.

About Tick Activity:
- Tick activity is seasonal. Adult ticks are most active in the spring and fall.
- Nymphal ticks, which are small and hard to find, are most active in the late spring and summer.
- If adult ticks have been seen in an area in the spring, it is likely that the nymphal ticks
will be there in the summer, even if reports of sightings have decreased.
