Tick-borne diseases, including Lyme, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and anaplasmosis, are an increasing problem in the United States, both in terms of frequency of occurrence and range. Increases in the ranges of disease hosts and carriers, possibly due to changes in populations and climatic conditions mean that tick bite protection and disease prevention have become critical needs. Adolescents and children are especially at risk because of the time they spend outdoors.

It is important that the Federal government assist in exploring means of effectively identifying challenges and ways to remedy this growing problem of tick management through Integrated Pest Management (IPM). This conference will identify knowledge gapsand barriers to effective communitywide tick IPM programs; propose the next steps in addressing knowledge gaps and eliminating barriers; and develop a framework for addressing the highest priority needs.

The conference will focus on six topic areas that will contribute to the development of an IPM-based prevention strategy and action plan:

1. Protecting children in school and outdoor environments.

2. Creating institutional structures for community level IPM.

3. Examining the role of landscape planning in tick management.

4. Public outreach strategies to reach targeted populations.

5. Protecting outdoor worker
exposure.

6. Measuring the impact of prevention strategy in the United States.
