Tick Talk

Let’s Talk Ticks: What Every Livestock Producer Needs to Know

The rising number of ticks in New York along with a new tick in town is raising the stakes for livestock farmers. More ticks in more places increases your risk of tick encounters and the disease-causing pathogens they inject during their blood meal.

Joellen Lampman, Community IPM Extension Support Specialist from the NYS Integrated Pest Management Program will discuss what we know about the impacts of ticks and tick-borne diseases on livestock in New York, steps being taken to learn more, and what we might do to mitigate risks for our stock and ourselves. Attendees will receive a Don’t Get Ticked New York kit for their farm. Kits contain tick removal equipment and identification cards.
