We hope you have a happy and safe Halloween!
This Halloween when you see vampires and zombies, remember that nature can be the best at being gross. A recent post in the New York Times includes a video that helps explain how the ticks that carry Lyme disease are able to attach and remain on the skin for days with their unique, saw-like mouthparts. You can read the full article and see the video here.
