This is an unkown tick to me, it probably belongs to the big Ixodes genus. Taken in a late April afternoon.

When we first moved to Ithaca the vet we saw introduced us to this gadget. It's a "tick removal" tool and works like a charm. We've used it many times due to the concentration of ticks in our area.

this sucker was found on my dog today. Picture taken with a 105mm macro extended with a 20mm tube.

I just wanted to let you know that I have Lyme disease and basically feel like crap. The tick that bit me was so diminutive, it's a miracle I even saw it! Please don't think that I have forgotten about you or anything! I guess this is the price I have to pay to roll around in the woods to get a shot! The Advil is just to show how small the little thing is. It would fit inside the d. I will be taking Doxycycline for three weeks.

Not all arachnids are spiders (although all spiders are arachnids). Look closely, there are TWO ticks on the tip of this grass stem questing for a blood source to come close enough.

This large statue of the crocodile from Peter Pan can be seen hanging over the entrance to the Peter Pan attraction in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom. Although he was never given a name in the film, in comics published later on his character was known as Tick-Tock the Croc.

Tick nymph, probably Ixodes ricinus, commonly known as the castor bean tick , deer tick or sheep tick. Woodwalton Fen National Nature Reserve, Ramsey Heights, Cambridgeshire. Monday 26th March 2018.

 

Uncropped image. The horizontal field of view is approximately 10mm; the tick nymph is approximately 1.4mm long.

 

This is the first one I've seen this year, and was found and photographed wandering across my trousers. Despite their small size, they are usually easily recognized by their very slow and ponderous movement - though it pays to wear light-coloured clothing to stand a better chance of spotting them. This one looks as though it hasn't fed yet.

 

If you are not aware of the potential health risks that ticks can pose, the website www.lymediseaseaction.org.uk is an excellent resource with several downloadable information leaflets, while www.bristoluniversitytickid.uk has a useful online photographic guide to species. The nymphs are the stage most likely to be encountered by humans; like the adults these can carry the Borrelia burgdorferi bacterium that is the causative agent of Lyme disease.

Big thanks and shout to Soker (thanks for the push matey :)

Ixodes sp., probably Ixodes ricinus, the Sheep Tick, Deer Tick or Castor Bean Tick, adult female, found crawling across my kitchen floor on Monday evening. Probably collected from Holme Fen NNR, where I'd spent the afternoon. Image taken on 24 March 2020.

 

...or at least I hope it came from Holme Fen!

Tick, probably Ixodes ricinus, the Sheep Tick, Deer Tick or Castor Bean Tick, adult female. Woodwalton Fen NNR, Ramsey Heights, Cambridgeshire. Sunday 9 June 2019.

 

There were zillions of tick nymphs at WWF on Sunday, but this was the only adult I saw. It was wandering across one of my sandals when I spotted it, but I thought the wooden bench would make a better background.

 

I've left the GPS data on this one, so you know which bench to avoid!

Cue song!

 

We're leavin' together

But still it's farewell

And maybe we'll come back

To Earth, who can tell?

I guess there is no one to blame

We're leaving ground (leaving ground)

Will things ever be the same again?

It's the final countdown

The final countdown

Tick, probably Ixodes ricinus, the Sheep Tick, Deer Tick or Castor Bean Tick. Monks Wood National Nature Reserve, Sawtry, Cambridgeshire. Wednesday June 5, 2019.

 

I'm guessing this might be an adult, as she's quite a bit larger than the ones in the two previous uploads. Gorgeous colour too - how can anyone not love something that pretty?

Tick Tick Tick Boom....is a great song by The Hives. It also was kind of what this mornings sunrise was like....with waves crashing and splashing over the rocks. The sun also made a bit of its own boom by getting a bit of colour into it.
