research in 2011 found that barberry-infested forests are about 12 times more likely to harbor deer ticks than forests without barberry... The effects of year-round supplemental feeding of white-tailed deer on sources of disease 2021 Mississippi State University ... feeding reduced the number of...
There was no significant difference in prevalence and intensity of deer ticks on (intensity = 1.6 ticks/infected mouse, prevalence = 100% mice infested) and (intensity = 4.0 ticks/infected mouse, prevalence = 75% mice infested).Miedema, Kimberly Jaclynn...
The system of containing and recovering adult ticks infesting deer was relatively efficient. Tick recovery and attachment status data are explicitly represented in Table2and were used to calculate all sums and percentages presented in this section. In total, white-tailed deer were infested with 840I...

In total, 1,012 ticks of 26 deer were collected. Prevalence of the species A. triste among tick-infested hosts was the highest in the first triennium but decreased to the second and further to the third triennium. In contrast, the R. microplus prevalence amidst infested host population, ...
The virus may also spread to new areas by birds infested with TBEV-infected ticks as well as by small and larger mammals infested with such ticks. For instance, if a massively tick-infested, large mammal migrates away from its place of birth - hypothetically a TBEV-enzootic area - to ...
Compared with previous studies, the geographic range for both species expanded into the central portion of the Illinois River. Prevalence and intensity of both tick species were greater on bucks, and infested bucks were geographically more widespread than infested does and fawns. These findings ...
Deer hair loss syndrome (DHLS) causes a deer to lose its hair for unknown reasons. ... Scientists know that hair loss can occur on a deerdue to rubbing and chewing on fur that is infested with lice. An infestation of muscle worms or a faulty immune system may also contribute to hair ...
Deer tick control Phil Pellitteri/UW Insect Diagnostic Lab Deer ticks( Ixodes scapularis) are active from late March until mid November in Wisconsin. Ticks stop being active only when there is snow on the ground. Adult deer ticks are somewhat smaller than the wood tick (American Dog tick), ...
There was no relationship between the probability of a deer being infested with CFT and the presence of permethrin; however, for males (n = 18, = 0.098) and females (n = 33, = <0.001) the probability of infection decreased as ivermectin levels increased. Therefore, ivermectin seemed more ...
