We have some tiny ticks here that will bite and move on, or come off if you scratch them, and you won't notice the bit till after they're gone. That could be what happened to you.


I grew up in prime lyme's disease country, but never had a problem. The first winter I was out here I camped at Malibu creek and got a tick. I've had hundreds of ticks in my life and that was the first I had a reaction too. Kinda freaked me out, but it was just a common reaction and no lyme's disease.
