A 36-year-old woman presented with a red, itching bump on her back and brought the arthropod that had bitten her. The diagnosis, a bite of a soft tick, was made by determination of the arthropod as a pigeon tick (Argas reflexus). Pigeon ticks only occasionally bite humans and can transmit multiple infectious diseases.
