Put it in the freezer as you wait the bullseye game. If you do think you have Lyme's disease then bring the tick with you to the doctor, so that can confirm it.

First symptom of Lyme is very distinct red oval on a place that got bit, if you see it then evaluating the tick is kinda pointless at that point.

Not every Lyme infection has a corresponding bullseye, or it will be in a location that you can't see easily.

Therr are also other tick borne illnesses that can be quite dangerous.
