Default Ticks in my garden?

The other day I noticed tiny spider like creatures crawling ALL over
my stone edging in my garden. They were red. After looking up ticks
today (for a different reason), I'm thinking maybe they are baby
ticks. They are the size of the head of a needle. Very TINY.

Could they be anything else?


Boxelder bugs? The babies are tiny....
