Ticks are surging in New Hampshire this season. Here’s why


Ticks are getting worse in New Hampshire—and fast. Here’s how to lower your risk this season: 🕷️ Keep your grass short, trim back shrubs, and let sunlight in. 🕷️ Clear out leaf litter, especially near stone walls or sheds. 🕷️ Keep woodpiles off the ground and away from your house. 🕷️ Move things like swing sets or picnic tables away from the woods. Even adding a strip of mulch or gravel between your lawn and the forest can help.
