May 27 article on MLive about Lone Star Ticks moving into Michigan... Berrien County & Toledo-ish: https://www.mlive.com/news/2021/05/rare-tick-is-becoming-more-common-in-michigan-and-it-could-give-you-a-red-meat-allergy.html Only article I spotted in MSU archive is fairly old and only talks about not being a carrier of Lyme Disease. Do you folks have updated info, please/thanks

Hi,

Not really. The LST is more of a research project as they are very rare in Michigan.
