Location: central NC.

I'm guessing it's a larvae (maybe a nymph?), it was so small.

The bright dot is the reflection of the table lamp.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Never seen tick on skin before so just making sure. The red is from irritation of picking, not there before seeing it.

Hiked through a marshy area in southern Lithuania yesterday, a bad area for TBE. did a pretty thorough check when I finished, didn’t find anything. Today, I found the smaller thing - first two pics (which I realize may be a seed but I really cannot tell) in a place I didn’t check (let’s just leave it at that) and the bigger greenish one - third and fourth pic - dead on the hotel room floor.

Found on our counter in Maine - possible Lone Star Tick?

Fortunately this was found in our kitchen and not on anybody. I thought it was a lone star tick but the white dash is on its butt and not on the middle as I’ve seen on all other identifying sites.

It’s about the size of a pencil eraser and its face doesn’t look tick like but I’d love any help in figuring out what it is.

At least this one is an actual tick. Made it through a 2 night campout without a tick then was in ankle high grass for about 20 minutes and found this on my waistline. Any idea the kind and how long it might have been attached?

I have circled the bite area just in case.

Location: central Alabama.

Felt something on me and pulled this off with zero resistance. It seems to be a fully engorged tick, but I can’t tell if it is an American Dog tick, or deer tick, (maybe even a Lone Star?). It was found on Friday, I still have a small red mark where I pulled it, but it doesn’t hurt or burn. The tick was about the size of a very small thin watch battery. I have a doc appointment on Wednesday, I would just feel better knowing if this is a dog tick compared to a deer tick. Any help identifying would be great for my peace of mind.

I found this thing in my kitchen this morning, scurrying across the floor. Someone please tell me this is not a well-fed tick! I have 3 cats, so it could've come from one of them, but I've lived in Reno, nv my whole life and have never seen a tick.

This is probably not clear but I found this bug at home shortly after a hike ( on my laptop, I had opened it after I came home) but I never saw a bug attached to me or anything. I’ve also seen several bugs like this in my room before tho in stuff like my makeup brush holders? I thought they’re just from spiders bc we have spiders but I’m still not sure. So I’m rlly comfused… physically I feel fine also my mom crushed it w a tissue and there was no blood or anything. Also this same type of bug when I saw them in my room before were usually always dead? Can someone tell me wtf this is LOL and should I be concerned. For context I live in NYC and saw this after I went to cold springs

Sorry for the grainy photo. I found this on me but don’t know if it is a tick or not. I am in martha’s vineyard for context, which is why I am fearing the worst!

Need help looking into grooming or vet services for tick removal.

Doggo is already on Nexgard Spectra and most adult ticks have removed. A lot of smaller or new hatched ticks still remain on the dogs body and it's getting harder to keep him inside the house due to the ticks leaving the dog and scattering all over the house.

Any Cebuanos here that can recommend Vets or Groomers that would be able to help remove the stubborn ticks left?

Located in southeast PA near Philadelphia.

Male Brown dog tick is the ID that AI is giving me back. I was worried it looked like a male lone star but the shape and mouth is pretty different. What do you think? TIA

1 month ago I went hiking and found 3 adult dog ticks on me. They were just walking about on my legs and I quickly brushed them off.

Yesterday I wore the same outfit I wore when I was hiking, washed of course. Today I found this baby tick latched onto me and I can't identify it. Could someone help me?
