It could be worse. My boy brought home 25 ticks in his hair from a camping trip two months ago. So much for letting his hair grow out to a corporate length. He was back to his military cut within an hour.

Gets home from the trip, hops in the shower, sits on my bed and says " hmmm, I think I have a tick because I feel something moving. Do you see any?!?" After demanding that he get off my bed immediately, we found more and more. Life Scouts are really proficient at that point in their BSA career to find little parasites on their body, but his hair was a great hiding place. This would be a weekend that GEN Alum was TDY so I am having to remind my 14 y.o. boy to check every nook and cranny and to shift things around to make sure no creatures were hiding. Very embarrassing for both of us.
