Generally speaking, if it’s safe to do so, you want to capture and keep any animal that you’re concerned may have bitten you and transmitted disease or envenomated you. Be it a tick, a spider, or a snake, although it’s generally much easier to pull off with a tick than a snake. Emphasis on, “if it is safe...” of course.
