How TickZone works

One daily number

A single 0–100 score with a green, amber, or red band. Know at a glance, not after reading a report.

A 7-day outlook

Risk recalculates every day from the local forecast, so you can plan the hike, the yard work, the dog walk.

See what's driving it

Weather, tick life-stage, local habitat, county disease rates, and recent sightings: all shown, never hidden.

Sourced and honest

Built from public health and mapping data, and clear that it's a defensible heuristic, not a medical diagnosis.

An early warning for tick season

The TickZone app puts your town's daily tick risk on your home screen and pings you when it climbs, so you, your kids, and your dog stay ahead of the ticks that carry Lyme. The website stays free.
