New York City is bracing for a severe tick and mosquito season. Experts predict a surge in disease-carrying vectors. This is due to rising temperatures and increased host animal populations. The Asian tiger mosquito continues to spread, thriving in the city's hot, humid summers. Parks like Central Park and Prospect Park are experiencing significant tick activity, benefiting from milder winter conditions where snow acts as an insulator. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has noted a rise in emergency room visits related to tick bites. Early April data shows 71 out of every 100,000 visits attributed to tick-related issues.
