A tiny bit of pure evil.
I found this one crawling on me this month. It just doesn't get cold enough long enough soon enough to kill them.
These are the primary vector of lyme disease. Yep, pure evil
This one I found on our cat Max the week prior. It is full of blood. And perhaps missing some of its mouth parts from how I pulled it off (I thought it was just something caught in his fur when I yanked it).

One of the drawbacks of living out here in the Pinelands, we regularly find ticks on us after working in the yard or when we go hiking. Standard precautions include pants in socks and a coating of bug spray with DEET. But we still find them.
And after you find one your skin crawls the rest of the day.
Excuse me while I go scratch ...
