Tick Checker: TickSight

Found a tick, or checking for one? TickSight's scanner flips your camera's colors so dark ticks stand out on light fur, skin and clothing, and its AI names the likely species from a photo. Then see what to do next: CDC-aligned removal steps, a card for the species and this week's tick activity where you are. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open Scan and move your camera slowly over fur, skin or clothing. Invert and Boost make dark specks stand out; turn on the light and zoom in as needed. 2. Found one? Capture it, add a note and save it. 3. Open Identify and photograph the tick, or pick a photo from your library. TickSight's AI compares it with 10 species and shows the most likely one with a confidence level, the life stage, the features it went by and possible alternates. 10 SPECIES CARDS Blacklegged (deer) tick, western blacklegged tick, American dog tick, brown dog tick, lone star tick, Rocky Mountain wood tick, Gulf Coast tick, Pacific Coast tick, Asian longhorned tick and castor bean tick. Each card shows the range, a map of recorded sightings, the season, identifying features, the diseases it can carry and removal notes, with a link to its source.
