The growing tick population poses significant health risks to humans and animals. Ticks can transmit diseases such as Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, and other infections, which may cause fever, rashes, and flu-like symptoms. These conditions often require medical attention, increasing the burden on healthcare systems. Areas with dense wildlife or poorly maintained yards are particularly vulnerable. The spread of ticks into regions where they were previously uncommon highlights the need for increased awareness and preventive measures.
