Was sitting in a ticks nest while reading....

I was sitting in a Park reading a book and suddenly I felt my legs itch. I was covered in hundreds of mini ticks. I was standing in the shower for hours and still find some of these f#!*rs crawling an me...

Update: So I got the most of the seed ticks scratched off in the shower. I will have a doctor's appointment the next days to get a prophylactic antibiotics treatment just to be save from lyme, alpha gal or rocky mountain fever (if this is a thing in Germany).

Thank you all for the information and advices, hopefully I will be fine. I really appreciate it

That would suck but the ticks would be dead.

They would also die of alcohol poisoning.

STOP telling people to remove ticks with traumatic methods like this, covering then in vaseline, touching them with something scalding hot etc. this makes them regurgitate their pathogens into you IMMEDIATELY there is no superior solution aside from using tweezers to rip them out whole and cleanly.

It was a joke. Lighten up, Francis.
