If you live in the Urbana area, here's an opportunity to hear our own Holly Black talk about tick ecology: fb.me/e/2xSjQCrUB

Come see us tomorrow at the Land of Goshen Community Market in Edwardsville! Learn about protecting yourself and your pets from #vectorbornediseases
Wait, these aren't ticks! We care about all #vectors, including #mosquitoes, and we're hearing that it's shaping up to be a really bad #westnilevirus year - don't forget your bug spray even if you're not visiting tick habitat
We'll be at Ballard Nature Center in Altamont tomorrow - come visit us to learn about ticks, mosquitoes, and how to protect yourself and your pets
We'll be back at Hoo Haven tomorrow for their special event - stop by to learn about #ticks and #mosquitoes !
