Deer Ked - Lipoptena cervi87 viewsI found this horrible looking thing scurrying about in my tummy hairs after driving home from Hay Bridge (members only) Nature Reserve, a 90 minutes drive.
Still makes my skin crawl now to think this thing was lodging on me, especially considering they carry Lyme disease, yuck.
Photographed after squishing it!
