@wbztv: Local landscapers and insect control companies say concerns about ticks are driving a surge in calls across Massachusetts. Alpha-gal syndrome, a potentially life‑threatening allergy to meat and dairy, is emerging as a growing public health concern in Massachusetts, particularly the Cape and Islands, as Lone Star ticks continue to spread north. Experts encourage residents to stay vigilant with prevention while still enjoying the outdoors. #boston #massachusetts #tick #illness #disease

Question really is, why are the ticks becoming more and more populous when 30years ago it wasn’t a big concern in New England? Never had a tick in NH til the 2010s and up.

Growing up in New England and playing in the woods we never saw ticks. Maybe one a year.
