Don't bite the ticks off your dogs
From a November 2003 article in the Journal of the American Veterinary
Medical Association, on the fatal transmission of Rocky Mountain spotted fever from two dogs to their owner: "One man in Mississippi contracted Rocky Mountain spotted fever when he killed ticks he had removed from his dog by biting them with his teeth. This may seem unusual," the veterinarian-authors wrote, "but we have since encountered other persons who claimed to kill ticks by biting them." [Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 11-15-03]
