The lone star tick is found in southern states as well as along the East coast up to Maine (see map below). Cases of STARI are most common in the south, although cases have been reported as far north as New Jersey. It is highly likely that cases of STARI have been mistaken for LD due to similarities in symptomology.
Hosts commonly infested by lone star ticks are humans, domesticated animals such as cattle, dogs and horses, ground-dwelling birds, squirrels, opossums and raccoons, plus white-tailed deer and coyotes. Primarily active in May and June, the lone star tick can become active on warm days during the winter and early spring.
