As it causes itching and annoying, one can protect by applying insect repelling pastes and spraying insecticides. The hard ticks are covered on their dorsal surface by a chitinous shield, called scutum, this in the male covers the entire back and in the female only a small part in front. The scutum in the soft tick is absent.They have a movable capitulum having a rostrum enclosing toothed chelicerae and toothed hypostome, pedipalp are 3 or 4 jointed. There are 4 pairs of prominent jointed legs with two claws and a pad.
