Ticks are parasitic arachnids that belong to the Parasitiformes superorder of mites (order Ixodida). Ticks can range in length from 3 to 5 mm as adults, depending on their age, sex, species, and degree of "fullness."
Ticks are obligate blood-feeders that live off the blood of mammals, birds, and occasionally reptiles and amphibians. Although the oldest known tick fossils were from the Cretaceous period, about 100 million years ago, the exact time of tick origin is unknown.
The world is home to many tick species, particularly in hot, humid regions.
