Robert Lane, a professor of Entomological Sciences, states:"there are some areas in Mendocino County where the percentage goes up to as high as 10 percent."
One place in Mendocino County CA had a high of 41% infected ticks from those collected.
I know the woman who lives there and she was able to have officials drag for ticks there.
The good news is---- if you stay on well maintained paths, don't sit in a field or grassy area or by a pretty stream---- the chances are less.
Coastal areas probably don't have as many ticks as inland areas---- especially on beaches.
