Maple Hour: Ticks in the Sugarbush

April 22nd, 2026, 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM

Susan Paskewitz, UW-Madison professor and researcher in the Medical Entomology Lab, joins the Maple Hour to talk about ticks in Wisconsin woodlands. We’ll look at ticks that could be found in a sugarbush, diseases they can carry, ways to prevent tick bites, and a tool you can use to help better understand ticks and prevent exposure.

The Maple Hour is a webinar series for Wisconsin maple enthusiasts. Each program features a timely topic, guest speaker(s), and live Q&A. You can register for upcoming webinars and watch the entire archive on the Maple Hour homepage.
