a The average body burden of chipmunks during the peak of I. scapularis nymph activity plotted against L-HDD, and b the average body burden of chipmunks during the I. scapularis nymph activity peak plotted against N-HDD. P-values and r 2 statistics are based on models including both the weather parameters and small mammal counts. Neither L-HDD nor N-HDD had a significant effect on the number of nymphs found on chipmunks
