Tick Tracker is now available in Canada! See live tick sightings and Lyme risk for every province and territory—plus full US coverage, all in one map.
Tick Tracker helps you check local tick risk before you head outside.
Built for hikers, dog owners, parents, campers, gardeners, hunters, homeowners, and anyone spending time outdoors, Tick Tracker combines tick sightings, tick hotspot maps, Lyme disease awareness, seasonal risk data, and community reports into one simple tick tracker for your area.
Instead of only scanning a pet or showing general tick safety tips, Tick Tracker is designed around the question people actually ask before going outside:
“Are ticks active near me right now?”
TICK TRACKER & LOCAL RISK MAP
View tick sightings and tick activity on an interactive map. See where ticks have been reported, where tick hotspots may be forming, and how tick risk changes by region. Tick Tracker helps you understand local tick activity before walking the dog, hiking a trail, camping, mowing the lawn, gardening, or letting kids play outside.
LYME DISEASE AWARENESS
Tick Tracker includes Lyme disease awareness and tick-borne disease prevention information to help you understand why tick checks matter. Learn about tick risk factors, seasonal patterns, bite prevention, removal basics, and when to contact a healthcare professional after a tick bite.
REAL-WORLD TICK SIGHTINGS
Use the map to explore recent tick sightings and tick reports. Tick Tracker is built to surface local outdoor risk, not just generic national information. Check your region, compare nearby areas, and monitor tick activity before spending time in grassy, wooded, brushy, or leaf-covered areas.
COMMUNITY TICK REPORTS
Help improve the map by reporting tick sightings, tick bites, pet tick encounters, yard activity, trail encounters, and other tick-related observations. Community reporting helps make Tick Tracker more useful during tick season.
TICK HOTSPOTS
Find areas with higher tick activity and monitor changing tick risk over time. Tick Tracker is useful for checking parks, trails, neighborhoods, campgrounds, backyards, and other outdoor areas where tick exposure may be more likely.
OUTDOOR SAFETY FOR PEOPLE & PETS
Ticks can affect people, dogs, cats, and other animals. Tick Tracker is built for families and pet owners who want a simple tick monitor before outdoor activities. Check local tick risk, review prevention tips, and build the habit of checking for ticks after time outside.

WHY TICK TRACKER?
Most tick apps focus on one thing: scanning for ticks, logging a report, or providing education. Tick Tracker brings the most useful pieces together in a map-first experience built around local risk.
Use Tick Tracker when you want to know:
• Are ticks active near me?
• Where are tick hotspots nearby?
• Has anyone reported ticks in this area?
• Is my region at higher tick risk this season?
• What should I do after a tick bite?
• How can I reduce tick exposure before going outside?
TICK SEASON CHANGES BY LOCATION
Tick activity can vary by region, weather, habitat, and season. Some areas may see higher risk in spring and summer, while others may have activity into fall or during warmer winter periods. Tick Tracker helps you monitor changing tick activity.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE
Tick Tracker is an informational outdoor safety app. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose Lyme disease, tick-borne illness, tick bites, rashes, or symptoms. If you find an attached tick, develop a rash, feel sick after a tick bite, or have concerns about Lyme disease or another tick-borne disease, contact a qualified healthcare professional.

I was planning a hike on the Pacific Coast and decided to check this app for any ticks that could potentially be carriers of Lyme Disease.It let me know the Western Backlegged Tick was in the exact area where my hike was planned and I was able to plan accordingly! Would have been really scary to find this out later. Excellent app!!

What's New in Version 1.02
This update expands coverage into Canada and makes the map and reporting experience cleaner and more useful.
- Canada is here: live tick sightings now include Canadian observations, and the map shows Lyme disease data for every Canadian province and territory from the Public Health Agency of Canada.
- Redesigned map layer picker: the Map Filters screen now shows a real map preview of each layer — Tick Risk, Lyme Risk, Lyme Cases, and Alpha-Gal Indicator — so you can see exactly what you're switching to.
- Cleaner filters: layer selection on top, map pins below, with less clutter.
- Show or hide hiking trails: a new toggle lets you keep trail pins on the map or clear them for a simpler view.
- Verified community reports: reports that include a photo are now reviewed and marked Verified after a short waiting period, with clearer status badges so you know which reports are confirmed.
- Better "Report a Tick" flow: a reminder to add a photo for verification, a live preview of your photo while you fill out the report, and a clearer confirmation after you submit.
- Refreshed tick sighting details: a cleaner photo layout and easier-to-read location, date, and observer information.
- Polished map controls: the location, filter, and report buttons now share a consistent, on-brand look.
