Robb,<br><br>All of the ticks found so far have been American dog ticks. So far as I have been able to find out, that variety does not carry anything dangerous to humans. The internet is an awesome research tool.<br><br>Spousal inspections will continue. I may even start keeping some in a jar in anticipation of tickless times in the future : )<br><br>Take care,<br><br>Andy
