    Deer ticks are really bad. Don't they carry Lyme disease

    Yeah. That makes me second guess going on my hikes, but I love my hikes.

    Wait, I think the disease they carry is more deadly than Lyme.
    I'll have to re-research them.

    note: this is from 2015
    Researchers in Connecticut have confirmed that a potentially deadly tick-borne virus has entered the state. Spread by blacklegged ticks, commonly known as deer ticks, the Powassan virus can even be more dangerous than Lyme disease and can cause serious nervous system disruptions, encephalitis, and meningitis. In documented cases, about 10 to 15 percent of those who contract the virus will die from it. Although the virus has a low occurrence rate, experts say the state should expect to see its first human cases soon.
