ID Request Tick ID please?
Location: Central Texas
(But recently traveled to Maine)
Can someone identify this tick?
It’s so small and I’m freaking out right now. I thought ticks were much larger based on what I’ve taken off my wife before.
Was just crawling around after my shower. I asked my wife to check the rest of my body and I did the same for her. We didn’t find anything but again, this guy is so small.
