    Dad once thought it would be funny to catch the hedgehog that wandered through the garden, and since wild animals are usually full of parasites, sure enough he caught a tick. That wouldn't be such a problem on its own, if only it didn't turn green. Grandma (from mom's side) was a doctor and urged him to get tested for Lyme, and sent the dead tick for testing as well. Dad was fine, fortunately, and it turns out that the reason the tick turned green and died was due to severe alcohol poisoning.

Ticks, mosquitos, rattlesnakes, and anything else that causes suffering to conscious intelligent creatures for no good reason should be purged like the scourge that it is.

      And "pop it like a zit" we should probably do (squish it with your sneaker!) I am not above squishing a nymph before it becomes a Hitler nymph, or suffer the loss of a Beethoven nymph.
      I figure they'll come around again soon, maybe as a Monarch butterfly that I would be delighted to cultivate milkweed pods for.

    This video was great, really interesting. I went walking in a nature reserve last week and found a tick on my arm in the evening. Quite worrying but it's good to know if you catch it early you are likely to not get lyme disease!

      Yes, you’ve got to be very careful in deer parks especially. They’re always infested with ticks. There’s a temptation to put down a blanket and have a picnic while admiring the deer - a very bad idea!
