If you have encountered a tick, been bitten, or received treatment for a tick bite, please consider taking the survey through the link below!
We're inviting you to take this survey on single-dose antibiotics for the prevention of Lyme disease. This survey aims to evaluate the effectiveness of antibiotics administered in a single dose in response to tick bites. This survey will ask questions about your experience with any potential tick bites or tick encounters you have had. It includes questions about any symptoms you may have shown, your experience with healthcare professionals, and getting access to treatments.

Are you curious about the American dog tick in New Brunswick?
Thanks to vet clinics and members of the public who submitted their ticks to the lab over the years, the Lloyd Lab has been able to track the spread across the province from 2012 to 2021.
