Is this a Lone Star Tick that just bit me?
I just saw this tick on me and I used the Seek app to identify it, which said it was a Lone Star Tick. The photo I used though (second one) was pretty blurry so I don’t know. It also looked more brown in the second one too which makes me feel like it could be a Lone Star Tick. I’m freaking out because my biggest nightmare I’ve had for the last couple months has been getting Alpha-Gal. I’m really stressed about it so I was wondering if anybody had experience with a tick that looked like this, or if maybe it was a different species. Also, is there anything I can do after getting bit outside of shower to prevent getting any symptoms? Anyone’s help is appreciated.
