The Great Meadows Public Health Collaborative, of which Bedford is a member, has established a subsidized tick testing program.
If Bedford residents find a tick on themselves, they can order a comprehensive tick report by mail and learn what disease causing microbes that tick may be carrying, including the pathogens in deer ticks that cause Lyme disease.
Bedford residents can order a tick report with a $30 subsidy, which will bring to cost to $20 instead of $50. Visit www.TickReport.com for more information.
