    (My boss said it was a grass tick. He told me that he used to collect ticks and sell them to vets so that they could milk them to get antibodies. I hadn’t heard of that before.

    He said to catch them put a white sheet down in the area and they’ll gather onto that.)

      I’m imagining a cattle sized tick with udders and a vet in a lab coat on a milk stool lol. Grass tick, cool, I might have to go down the Wikipedia rabbit hole :p
