Last night I was sitting there and looked over at a stool. There was this bug hanging on a web thread.
I bent down blew on it, it swung but didn't move away.
It sure looked like a tick.

Getting a tissue, I took it off and sure enough t was a dead tick.

So I did a Google about spiders and ticks and it seems that Arthropods are predators of ticks.

Ticks ARE arthropods. Lots of bugs eat other bugs. Nature is... harsh. 😑

Wonder if they eat each other?
Yes nature can be harsh.
Then again when it comes to these blood suckers, I'm rooting for the 🕷. 🤣

Ticks do feed on each other, particularly males on an engorged female.

I feel the same about mosquitos. The bats in my back yard are welcome to them!
