You can look up online adult vs. nymph and then look up what it looks like engorged to see if it actually fed on anyone. It might have come in on someone's clothes, if it wasn't engorged then there's a good chance it didn't get the chance to feed on anyone.

Omg, engorged ticks are so nasty. The one we found wasn’t a nymph (adult female) and based on pics doesn’t seem like it fed (phew!).

AS someone who grew up in the rural part of the Houston area, I can also say we worried about ticks and stuff. Of course, my biggest worries were getting bitten by spiders (which happened once) and especially by venomous snakes. (I was bitten on my right foot by a copperhead when I was 12. it was a week before i started the seventh grade. Spent the night in the hospital, but didn't require any anti-venom at all. I got extremely lucky.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
