Dill speaks to News Center Maine about deer tick nymphs
News Center Maine interviewed Griffin Dill, manager of the University of Maine Cooperative Extension Tick Lab, about the threat of emerging deer tick nymphs, which cause the most cases of Lyme disease. Dill said the parasites are so tiny they are practically invisible, making this part of their life cycle the most lethal. “That’s what makes this stage a particular concern, they can easily go unnoticed as they feed on us, our kids, and our pets,” Dill explained.
