He was thrown out the window yesterday. They’re just part of my job...
what is disgusting, though? Are they more disgusting than mosquitoes?
@NothinnXpreVails
Do you live in an area with deer ticks?
@Leafhead yeah, north of Houston
@NothinnXpreVails
Oh shit. I would show that pic to Insectra on Critter Corner for a proper identification.
Or better yet take it to a lab
@Leafhead nah, just a tick, one of many pulled off during summers. Lyme disease can’t be that bad
@NothinnXpreVails
It can be that bad and worse if left unchecked and untreated. Early it has a 100% cure rate but as it settles in it gets harder.
Think Syphilis
@Leafhead I think I’m gonna be alright
@NothinnXpreVails
You probably will be, but I'd still look for a rash on the hand just in case
@Leafhead oh, yeah, of course
one of the few sorts of critters i'd rather do without...

Posted by InsectraA cute grey treefrog (Hyla versicolor) that I found in my birch tree, this afternoon. His camouflage was great and I only discovered him when I heard him calling.

Posted by InsectraSpring amphibian migration in Pennsylvania is well under way! Most of these are Jefferson's salamanders, one of our earliest moving amphibians and a species of special concern in Pennsylvania.
