• Amherst Ranked High Risk for Tick-Borne Disease (amherstindy.org) — Greenfield is currently the only town in Franklin County rated at moderate, rather than high, risk for tick-borne disease, but experts still warn conditions strongly favor tick activity. A new TickZone analysis shows most nearby towns face high risk, and residents are urged to cover up, use repellent, and check themselves, children, and pets carefully after spending time outdoors.
