Colin PurringtonFound an eastern black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis) on me Wednesday. Astute viewers will note lack of head ... because it is still inside me. Time to spray my clothing and work boots with permethrin again. #tick #ticks #ixodes #tmi #permethrin
Scot CI wonder how effective these guys would be against ticks...

Stefan F. WirthThe #European #hedgehog, #Erinaceus #europaeus is native to parts of southern/ central #Europe, Scandinavia, and northern Russia. It lives solitarily in overlapping #territories and protects itself from #predators by #curlingup, which requires complex muscular coordination.
K. Schütte et al. (2024) identified #ectoparasites of 498 specimens. #Ixodes #ricinus and I. #canisuga were the most abundant #ticks.

aurearamonLes paparres poden transmetre patògens com bacteris, virus i paràsits a través de les seves picades. Se les vincula a la malaltia de Lyme, l'encefalitis (TBE), anaplasmosis... La de la foto pertany al gènere Hyalomma , menys abundant a Europa, però transmissora de la febre hemorràgica de Crimea-Congo.

Didrik VanhoenackerFästingjakt med P1 morgon igår. Med en vit fleecefilt samlade jag på ett par minuter in ett femtiotal fästingar.
https://sverigesradio.se/artikel/p1-morgon-ger-sig-ut-pa-fastingjakt
Fästingar suger blod tre gånger, först som larv (de två nere till vänster), sedan som nymf (den ner till höger), och slutligen som vuxen (de två övre, hona till vänster och hane till höger). Hanen är inklippt, den fick jag inte med fleecen, utan den satte sig fast under byxlinningen under kvällens svamptur.

Researchers decipher comprehensive black-legged tick genome
A University of Maryland-led team of scientists has deciphered the first comprehensive, continuous genome for a parasite responsible for transmitting Lyme disease and other serious infections to hundreds of thousands of Americans yearly. With their newly described genome for the black-legged tick, or deer tick, the researchers identified thousands of novel genes and new protein functions, including proteins associated with tick immunity, disease transmission and developmental stages.
