Ticks are small, blood-sucking parasites that often lurk in forests, grassy areas, and even our own backyards. These tiny invaders pose real health risks as they can transmit serious illnesses such as Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and tularemia. If you find a tick inside your home,
it’s crucial to act quickly to prevent potential infections and stop further infestations. Start by identifying the tick species—some are more dangerous than others. If you’re unsure, snap a clear photo and reach out to a medical or pest control professional for help in identifying it. Knowing what you’re dealing with can guide your next steps and offer peace of mind.
