Dr. Thomas Mather, widely known as "The Tick Guy," joins Michael Kosta to discuss how people can continue enjoying outdoor activities throughout the year while reducing their risk of tick bites. A public health entomologist and researcher at the University of Rhode Island, Dr. Mather explains which tick species are associated with Lyme disease, addresses some of The Daily Show staff's most common concerns about ticks, and shares three key prevention strategies: tucking shirts and pant legs into clothing, using tick repellents on clothing, and performing regular tick checks after spending time outdoors.
