Signs of infestation:
Tick infestations can occur at home as a result of being found on your body or on your pet. Ticks require blood from people or animals to survive; therefore, if ticks are present in your home, they will attach themselves to you, members of your family, or pets. They can be found in the armpits or scalp of a person, but notably their bite is painless.
After being outside in an area prone to ticks, you should always check your body. Examine for any brown or black spots. Remember that ticks vary in size. Additionally, a way to tell if there are ticks in your home is if you develop a tick-borne illness. The following are common symptoms: fever/chills, body aches/pains, headache, fatigue, and a rash.
