Learn how to systematically collect ticks and nymphs to estimate their population density using both active (dragging) and passive (CO2 trapping) methods. Higher tick densities indicate increased risk to people and pets so routine surveillance and monitoring of tick populations is essential to reducing health risks through Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices.
