Never saw a white tick before this what we call a deer tick due to
size. I called up our county health department and was told to give
Animal Control a call. Have to wait to Friday hours. I got him between
two pieces of clear scotch tape at the moment.

First call to the health department ever. I think it is weird.

Anyone see a white tick before?
