Is there a word for the condition of being infested with ticks? [closed]

Is there a word or term for the state of a human or animal infested with ticks?

Mainly just curious.

Examples:

He's suffering from ______.

Don't get near him: he has _____.

Solution 1:

Ectoparasitism TFD is the medical term:

the state in which the ectoparasite [ticks, lice] are living on the surface of the host's body.

He went to the doctor with ticks, and was diagnosed with ectoparasitosis.

Solution 2:

I don't think there is a word that refers to possessing ticks as a condition, but you could use "tick-ridden" or "tick-infested" as an adjective:

The dog is tick-ridden.
