NJ Ticks 4 Science!" is a citizen science project organized by the Rutgers Center for Vector Biology. Our goal is to create a tick map showing the changing distribution of ticks and tick-borne pathogens in NJ and bring more awareness to tick-borne disease. If you encounter a tick in New Jersey, you can send it to us and we will test it for disease-causing pathogens for free! With your help, we will learn where and when people are exposed to ticks and tick-borne diseases.
