Sherman Conn Tick Season Has Already Begun
Monday, April 7, 2025
The Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station (CAES) has reported early tick activity in the region. Goudarz Molaei, a research scientist and director of CAES's Passive Tick and Tick-Borne Disease Surveillance Program, noted that despite a relatively cold winter, ticks have survived and are now active. This resilience is attributed to their ability to hibernate under leaf litter during colder months.
