Lyme disease is transmitted through the bite of an infected deer tick. The Deer Tick is about the size of this period. Especially in the spring. It is possible that it can also be transmitted by other ticks fleas and/or mosquitoes but this has not yet been proven. Even if the tick was not on you long enough to infect you, if you squeeze it with tweezers to pull it off then you can force the guts of the tick into you. Be sue to remove them carefully and by the head only.
These ticks are usually found on the edge of the woods. You probably will not feel its bite. If you live in an area with a lot of ticks, then you should take a very hot shower every day you go outside on the grass or at the edge of the woods.
