They are repugnant to most people not only because of their blood-feeding habits, but some species may cause paralysis or serve as reservoirs and vectors of a remarkable variety of pathogens, including viruses, rickettsiae, bacteria, protozoans and spirochaetes. in Canada, these pathogens include the causative agents of Lyme borreliosis, relapsing fever, tularemia, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Q fever, Colorado tick fever, Powassan encephalitis, and perhaps others, some of which afflict wild and domesticated animals as well as humans, leading to highly pervasive medico-veterinary and economic issues. An important step is correct identification of the offending entity, which with ticks may be any of the active immature or adult forms. [9780968932186].
