The next step in this study will be to take a short introductory survey about your yard, your recreational activities in your yard, and ticks. We will ask your permission to complete the introductory survey questions now. This survey should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. You will not receive a direct benefit from being part of this survey. Helping to carry out this research has a chance to tell us a lot about how to prevent tickborne diseases. This could be of future benefit to you or someone you know. There are no costs for participating in this survey. As compensation for your time and effort, you will receive a $X gift card in the mail along with the study forms.
