Dill speaks with WVII about Maine tick population

Jim Dill, a pest management specialist with University of Maine Cooperative, spoke with WVII (Channel 7) for a report about the warmer weather bringing more insects to Maine. Dill warned that “because of the mild winter, we expect and have seen that the population of ticks are good.” He added that because ticks have a two-year life span, the population is expected to remain high next summer.
