Most Common Types of Biting Pests in NC and TN.

Fleas

Fleas are small, wingless insects that feed on the blood of pets, wildlife, and occasionally humans. The cat flea is the most common species in the Southeast. Fleas jump onto hosts from carpets, bedding, yards, or wildlife and can cause itching and discomfort. They are often brought indoors unknowingly on pets or clothing.

Chiggers

Chiggers are tiny mites that live in tall grass, leaf litter, and low vegetation. They are barely visible to the naked eye and feed temporarily on the skin, causing intensely itchy red welts. Chiggers often attach to ankles or other areas that brush against the vegetation.

Deer Ticks

The deer tick is a common outdoor tick in North Carolina and Tennessee, especially in wooded and brushy areas. Deer ticks are small and reddish-brown, with adults slightly larger than a sesame seed. They feed on mammals and birds and can transmit diseases like Lyme disease and anaplasmosis. Deer ticks often latch onto people or pets unknowingly while walking through grass, leaf litter, or along trails.

Dog Ticks

The American dog tick is another common tick in the region, usually found in grassy fields and along trail edges. These ticks are brown with white markings and feed on dogs, humans, and other mammals. They are known to transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever. American dog ticks attach to hosts when they brush against vegetation during outdoor activities.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Adult ticks have 4 pairs of legs and the body is not divided or constricted. Ticks have a similar shape to mites but they are considerable larger, usually 3mm or more in length and their body is leathery.

  • Unlike mites that are free living, ticks are ectoparasites on mammals, birds, and reptiles. Ticks often feed on small mammals like field mice and can be found in wooded areas and fields. The exception to this is the dog tick which is usually found in suburban areas and their main host is dogs. Dog ticks are one of the only ticks you can find that infest homes. If your home borders woodland, fields, or is prone to having small mammals you should be more cautious and think about contracting a competent pest management company to provide proactive treatments.

  • Fleas are only about 2 1/2 mm in length. They are reddish brown in color and have a shine to them. They do not have wings, but they can jump long distances.

  • Fleas can be found on pet dogs or cats. The flea will attach to the animal from outside and then infests its fur and sleeping areas.
