 A species of tick, the American dog tick, is known to carry bacteria responsible for several diseases in humans, including tularemia (Francisella tularensis) and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. It is one of the most well-known of hard ticks. D. variabilis does not cause Lyme disease, which is carried by the deer tick Ixodes scapularis. Arachnid commonly called ticks are external parasites.

Ticks are second only to mosquitoes as vectors of human disease, both infectious and toxic. Tick bites look like mosquito bites, but can also sometimes bruise or resemble a bullseye.
