Researchers at NC State University and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services are sampling ticks on residential properties throughout Chatham County.  They need about 2 dozen locations spread around the county and are asking me to assist them in locating properties.  They specified homeowners.

I am probably going to get far more replies than I can answer.  They only need a couple dozen spread around the county.  I will select the first replies that fit a geographical spread.  If you don't get a reply, that means you weren't selected.

I don't know exactly what they will need beyond access to your property. They will probably want to simply collect some ticks.

If you are willing to participate, please send me your

Name -
General area of county (northwest, southeast,...) -
Street Address -
Phone number -
Directions to your property -

Thanks for your consideration of this request.
