UMass Amherst Researchers Need Cape Cod Volunteers

Researchers at UMass Amherst are asking Cape Cod residents to take part in the Project ITCH study.

The Is Tick Control Helping [[ ITCH ]] study looks at real-life backyard tick control practices to figure out what keeps ticks away, and what doesn't.

Officials say Project ITCH isn't a typical research study - it's chill, safe, private, and super helpful for Cape Cod communities.

Anyone interested in taking part in the study can find out more information at newvec.org/itch.
