Urban woodland habitat is important for tick presence and density in a city in England

Kayleigh M. Hansford et al.

Summary: This study investigates tick presence, nymph density, and Borrelia infection in urban green spaces in Bath, England, revealing the potential risk of Lyme borreliosis to the public. The findings emphasize the importance of considering tick bites as a public health concern in urban green space planning and management.

Where to find questing Ixodes frontalis ticks? Under bamboo bushes!

Olivier Plantard et al.

Summary: Tick-borne diseases in Europe have a complex epidemiology that involves various species of vertebrate hosts, vectors, and pathogens. A poorly known tick species, Ixodes frontalis, was found to have high density populations under bamboo bushes, likely due to providing birds with a favorable roosting place sheltered from predators and wind. This discovery may have implications for the epidemiology of tick-borne diseases.

Trends and Opportunities in Tick-Borne Disease Geography

Catherine A. Lippi et al.

Summary: Tick-borne diseases are a growing problem worldwide, and the surveillance and control measures involve various fields such as medical entomology, agricultural health, veterinary medicine, and biosecurity. Spatial approaches can help stakeholders understand the current and future distribution of risk, with major gaps in data utilization and mapping efforts in enzootic cycles of tick-borne pathogens, particularly in Africa and Asia. Future work can focus on applying available methods to track the distributions of tick-borne diseases in these regions following a One Health approach combining medical and veterinary surveillance.
