Ticks Sub Cat Koaw Nature.png

Did you know…

…ticks are external parasites living off of the blood of their hosts. Many hard ticks require three different hosts to complete their life cycle!

Need to ID a tick?

If you live in the U.S. or Canada, check out this tick identification resource created by the University of Rhode Island. https://tickencounter.org/tick_identification/tick_species

You can always browse bugguide.net or iNaturalist for tick and other arachnid IDs as well!

I am also considering making a video on proper tick removal.

I use Sawyer’s Permethrin Insect Repellent to keep ticks off me in the warmer months. It works very well! (Affiliate link.)
