What people are saying
Don’t take our word for it
“If you did have a tick on you and you have the app, you pull it right out and you know what to do. A lot of people go to YouTube when they want to remove a tick, but there’s so much misinformation out there. [The Tick App] has it all in one place on how to do it…and it offers peace of mind to people.”

“A couple years ago we felt like we had to put information [on ticks and Lyme Disease] together ourselves. Something like the Tick App really cuts through all the misinformation and just gets you to what you need to know.”

“I learned a lot about identifying ticks [I also learned about] the removal process, and the protecting [of] the yard. That was a new thing for me. Realizing that you can actually protect yourself, environmentally, and in a lot of ways we hadn’t even thought about before.”
