This week is Lone Star Tick Awareness Week at TickWarriors, and Martha's Vineyard shows exactly why it matters to you. In 2020, Martha's Vineyard Hospital ran just 9 tests for alpha-gal syndrome. Last year that number topped 1,600, and nearly half came back positive.
The lone star tick is expanding fast, and it's not staying put on one island. If conditions are right for this tick on the Vineyard, they're right in your yard too.
Protect yourself and your family with TickWarriors repellent, made from plant-based ingredients that work.
