@samueltyler2 Yes, they do. One disease being Q Fever. Some people can be affected by sudden high fevers, chills, bad sweats, and severe headaches, muscle pain, joint pain, and extreme tiredness, dry cough, nausea, or weight loss. Two-week course of anti-biotics sees the person back to full health.
Good bad ?? Here in Canada some ticks are ok some carry lime disease.... Being a country boy I encounter both.. Best part of the day is when we come inside and have " tick check".. lol
@Windigo1 There is no Lyme disease in Australia. The ticks can be problematic for vulnerable people. Ricketts being one illness that can be contracted. I have had Kangaroo ticks on my body with no ill effects.
