Dill speaks to PPH about ticks reemerging

The Portland Press Herald interviewed Griffin Dill, manager of the University of Maine Cooperative Extension Tick Lab, about the reemergence of ticks in New England after a “slow start” at the beginning of the season. “I don’t expect we will have a lower season overall, just a slightly slower start to the season. There are a myriad of factors that could negate this slow start, so it’s hard to say whether one slightly later start to the spring is going to noticeably impact tick populations,” Dill said. The Sun Journal, CentralMaine.com and Yahoo! News shared the Press Herald report.
