Special Projects


2017

In 2017, the North Dakota Department of Health partnered with North Dakota veterinary clinics and zoos to conduct tick surveillance throughout the state to provide information on the distribution of ticks in North Dakota. Ticks were collected from animals and submitted to the NDDoH each week for identification and tick-borne pathogen analysis.

2010

In 2010, the North Dakota Department of Health collaborated with North Dakota State University and the University of North Dakota to conduct tick surveillance throughout the state to determine the presence of the deer tick in North Dakota. Ticks were collected at sites around the state, with an emphasis on the eastern side of the state and where the habitat is more likely to support a deer tick population.
