Identifying ticks in San Antonio
Lone star ticks (white dot on female), brown dog ticks, and American dog ticks dominate locally. All have eight legs, flattened oval bodies, and engorge dramatically after feeding.
Behavior & habitat
Ticks "quest" on tall grass and brush, waiting for a host to brush past. They can survive months between meals and prefer humid, shaded environments.
Why ticks are a problem here
Vectors for ehrlichiosis, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, alpha-gal syndrome (red meat allergy from lone star ticks), and rarely Lyme disease.
San Antonio seasonal outlook: Termite swarms hit hardest in spring, scorpions peak June through September, and rodents push indoors as soon as nights drop below 60°F.
Signs of a ticks problem
- • Ticks attached to pets, especially around ears, neck, and between toes
- • Ticks crawling on people after time in tall grass or brushy areas
- • Heavy populations in shaded, leaf-littered yard zones
