Maine’s Lyme cases exceed 2024’s record by Oct. 14, driven by resilient ticks and climate change, prompting health warnings.
Lyme disease cases in Maine have surpassed the 2024 record of 3,218 by October 14, defying typical drought-related declines in tick activity.
Experts attribute the rise to larval ticks surviving dry conditions by staying close to the ground, while climate change extends tick seasons and expands their range.
Maine also reports high numbers of anaplasmosis and babesiosis cases.
With returning rain, adult ticks are reemerging, prompting health officials to urge protective measures: wearing repellent, checking for ticks, showering after outdoors, and drying clothes on high heat.
