Wisconsin

Wisconsin is a hotspot for tickborne diseases, including several associated with the deer or blacklegged tick (Lyme Disease, anaplasmosis, ehrlichiosis, Powassan virus and babesiosis).  

You can learn more about Wisconsin-specific issues, including tick identification, county-level distribution maps, tick management strategies and current research projects at the University of Wisconsin’s Medical Entomology Lab website. 

Additional information about research and training related to ticks and mosquitoes in Wisconsin and the Upper Midwest can be found at the website for the Midwest Center of Excellence for Vector-Borne Disease.
