  1. hard tick

    A hard tick is a type of external parasite of the order Ixodida that belongs to the family Ixodidae. They are characterized by their hard outer shell, or scutum, and a mouthpart that is visible from above. Hard ticks are known to spread severe diseases in animals and humans, such as Lyme disease, by feeding on the blood of their hosts. They possess a unique, long-lasting attachment mechanism, which allows them to remain attached to their host for an extended period of time. Their life cycle includes four stages - egg, larva, nymph, and adult.
