Description

Deer Ticks (Ixodes scapularis) have gained a terrible reputation for their ability to spread Lyme disease. Other people call it Black-legged tick and are almost the size of a sesame seed with black dorsal marking but reddish on the posterior. Look for it on White-tailed deers, its favorite host, and from where it takes its name in Northeast USA and Southeastern Canada. The Deer Tick has a unique feeding behavior, feeding three times in its entire life: that is once when molting from larvae to nymph; the same from nymph to adult; and also when laying eggs as adults.
