Here is a pic of a "Tick." We
think this is a wood (dog) tick*; this isn't a deer tick. The body length is
about 5 mm. This pic was shot in Minnesota on 100515. Stay away from any
ticks, especially deer ticks.
Ticks are blood sucking parasites.
Ticks are vectors for many diseases, for example, Lyme disease.
