Pennsylvania Tick Research Lab

"In the past couple of years I've used the lab to identify and test quite a few ticks that I have unfortunately had embedded in my skin. Such a great tool to have that can help you make a decision whether or not to seek medical advice about the tick. Thanks for all you do and keep up the good work!"

"The results came very quickly, were reasonably priced, and very thorough. I am so thankful to know to have my tick identified and checked for all variety of tick-borne illnesses. I can't recommend TickLab enough for anyone anxious to know whether they've been infected through a tick-bite."

"The Tick Research Lab not only gets to collect data on ticks and the pathogens they carry, but it also tests samples at no or low cost. I will do my part for citizen science and send the deer ticks I find. Quick turnaround and easy instructions. A great opportunity for PA residents!"

"This service gave me unbeatable peace of mind when my infant was bit by a tick. It’s amazing that this free/affordable option exists. It was easy to have the tick tested and results came super fast. My expectations were beyond exceeded!"

"I was very pleased with the lab. I had sent the tick through the mail 07/20/24 and it was already identified by the lab on 07/23/24 with results in the next 2 days. Thank you for such quick and professional service. Also the price was so inexpensive but most of all was the peace of mind with the identification and results so quickly. I would highly recommend this lab. Thank you so much for a job well done."
