Tick bites were found to be common
amongst beekeepers, with 85.25% reporting having experienced these bites, and 26.6% of beekeepers reporting that they frequently experienced tick bites.
Interesting note, this time of year every one of my white hive lids will have ticks hanging on it looking for a host Many have 3 or 4. The plain wood ones are empty.... kind of odd.
