There's good article here:

And the video can be freely downloaded by torrent from loads of sites - one of the best seems to be:

I do remember some years ago when I was planning to go to one of Pinewood Camp's Music and Dance weeks near Boston, that I researched the health risks of Lyme Disease. It appeared that the area was one of the 'hot' spots. I asked the Pinewood's organisers what the risks were and was told "there aren't any." When I got there I obviously enquired again and to prove a somewhat macho point some of the male staff went round the grounds in shorts and bare feet. I wasn't convinced.

After returning I was right to be concerned ... see:

At no time during pre-attendance administration, nor during the actual week, were we warned about the presence of deer ticks in the area, nor anything about precautions that we should have been taking.
