Ticks, related to spiders and scorpions, are wingless parasites with a single, oval flat body (except when filled with blood).
Being flightless, ticks "wait" for passing vertebrate hosts.
Nearly every tick the you see is an adult tick, and usually a female. The reason is that female ticks attach to a host, feed for several days, and engorge to a size that is easily felt or seen on a person or pet.
The safest and most effective way to remove an attached tick is to grasp it behind the mouth parts with tweezers and pull gently and steadily until the tick releases its hold.
