I live in Alberta. No rats here. Also the ticks here don't spread Lyme disease.

They likely spread rocky mountain fever instead, if they are dog ticks like we have in Colorado.

Albertan here too. Can confirm no rats

My friend got Lyme disease from a tick though so I can't agree with that part

> the ticks here don't spread Lyme disease.

this is out of date information unfortunately. With warming climate, the black-legged tick has spread into Alberta and samples have been found with the Lyme disease bacterium.
