Louisiana / Peak Tick Season / How to Prevent Tick Bites & Treatment Info.
In Louisiana, the peak of tick season is generally June through August, though ticks can be active throughout the warmer months, from spring through fall. This period sees the highest activity due to warm temperatures and high humidity, which are ideal conditions for ticks to thrive. While some tick species are active year-round, the peak months are when humans are most likely to encounter them and be bitten.
Preventing Tick Bites
Reducing exposure to ticks is the best defense against tickborne diseases.
