No, ticks are not born in deer feces. Ticks hatch from eggs laid by adult female ticks, typically in leaf litter or grassy areas. While deer can host ticks and provide a food source for them, the ticks themselves do not originate from deer feces. Instead, they are found in environments where they can easily attach to passing hosts.
To avoid ticks while outdoors, wear long sleeves, long pants, and closed-toe shoes. Tuck pants into socks and wear light-colored clothing to spot ticks easily. Use insect repellent containing DEET on exposed skin and check for ticks after being outside.
Ticks are small arachnids with oval bodies and eight legs, similar to spiders.
