Its getting scary out there, my wife has basically banned us going hiking esp in Spring when the nymph ticks are tiny. Going to the movies never looked so good.

- TACIXAT 7y agoYea, it seems like there are so many now! We've also stopped hiking. Our dogs would just be covered if they went at all off the trail.
- newnewpdro 7y agoAre nymph ticks even capable of breaking through human skin?
- rb808 7y agoYes, they are the main problem: Nymphal ticks cause most cases of Lyme disease. Because nymphs are as small as poppy seeds and their bite is painless, people often don’t realize they have been bitten. Adult ticks can also infect humans, but are easier to spot and remove. https://www.lymedisease.org/lyme-basics/ticks/about-ticks/ https://www.lymedisease.org/lyme-basics/ticks/about-ticks/
