Wood/Dog ticks are found, pretty-well from a line between Truro to Cole Harbour and points West and South of there... Some small areas not yet affected within this area.

Black-legged (Deer) ticks are much spottier, even within HRM,  so if vet is examining dog, useful to know which species of tick w.r.t. what to do.

Have more data on Groundhog ticks, but limited info on the other 11 species.

Only the BLT is implicated in Lyme at this time.
