How to Report a Tick

You can report a tick at any time and for as many ticks as you find.

Above: Common reporting images you may encounter while using The Tick App.

FOR EVERY TICK THAT YOU FIND, YOU WILL NEED TO COMPLETE A REPORT.

To do this, you will need to fulfill the following:

  • Select the Report-A-Tick button.
  • Complete the list of questions. In summary, these questions will ask who and where the tick was found!
  • Hit the Submit button and your tick report is now submitted.

ATTENTION: It is important that we acknowledge that the information The Tick App collects will help researchers determine what activities and prevention measures lead to black-legged tick or deer tick encounters.
