Ticks Are Moving North Fast

Ticks are invading Canada faster than ever, driven by climate change, and now they’re showing up in places that were once tick-free — including cottage country and cities like Montreal. Warmer temperatures and longer seasons are helping these pests thrive, while migratory birds and resilient survival tactics let them spread across the country. Dangerous species like the lone star tick and Asian longhorned tick are bringing new health risks, including Lyme disease and red meat allergies. Experts say this is the new normal — so stay safe by dressing right, checking for ticks, showering soon after being outdoors, and drying clothes on high heat to kill any hitchhikers.
