Remember: Ticks can still be out during the fall!

 Even though the weather is cooling, ticks can still be out during the fall until there is snow cover or days stay below freezing.

Our lab caught a male Ixodes scapularis (deer tick) on our most recent tick drag, and I. scapularis ticks are currently being found on dogs.  So, keep your family and fido closely monitored for tick bites until snow flies!
