Ticks are active whenever the temperature is consistently above 40Â° F (5Â° C). That means that for much of the U.S. and Canada, the chance of your pet picking up a tick is very small from November through April. Unfortunately, in warmer areas, there is a significant risk year round.icks are active whenever the temperature is consistently above 40Â° F (5Â° C).

In one experiment, most of the nymphal deer ticks exposed to 75% humidity for 8 hours died, even after being returned to 96% humidity. In a typical house environment, unfed deer ticks are not likely to survive even 24 hours. Ticks on moist clothing in a hamper can survive 2-3 days. Ticks that have taken a blood meal may survive a bit longer but certainly not the 30+ days it takes to mature and bite again or lay eggs.
