    Ohh damn, between the toes… been there done that and it really sucks.

    For future reference, if you’re lucky enough to discover them before they’ve attached then best way I’ve found to remove them is to use clear packing tape, it’s sticky enough to get the seed ticks but not so sticky that it rips out hair (like duct tape does). A magnifying glass is a big help for finding them all and a friend/spouse that can check areas that are hard to see and get to is also a big help.

    Itches like chiggers too, maybe worse… but I’ve never gotten more that a couple dozen chiggers at once and usually its 6 or less… with seed ticks it’s usually several hundred at a time…
