This arthropod is the main carrier Borrelia Burgdorferi , a bacterium that causes Lyme disease. Although deer occasionally feed on human blood, people are not a preferred part of their life cycle of three hosts. They feed on the blood of small animals such as mice and other rodents. Larva receives blood a few days before the release of its host. It must only feed once in the larval stage. When the blood meals are completed, the larvae are checked in a beige nymph with a dark head.
like a nymph, a deer tick for larger animals such as squirrels and cats. During this phase, it could also feed on human blood. Nymphs, like larvae, must only be fed once. It falls from the animal, descends to the ground and decomposes into adults.
Adult males of deer are solid black and slightly larger women have red bodies and black legs. These ticks are roughly veliThe bones of sesame seed before feeding, but increase when their bodies are confiscated by blood. Tick -borne deer checks with large mammals such as deer and cattle, as well as canines and people.
These ticks take about two years to complete all four life phases. During the spring, women relaxed from their hosts. They lay about 1,000-3,000 eggs in the grass and then died.
developing larvae usually remain in the general area where they were hatched, where they wait for a potential host. The chances that the deer of the larval deer that finds blood food is slim. Many of them die of starvation, illness or predators before reaching adulthood.
larvae ticks receive bacteria of lymph disease from animals such as mice with white trace. They Carry these spirit in their bodies during their life stages and the transmission of the disease to future hosts. Most likely to pass on notPower people when they are in the nymph phase.
people who are infected with disease experience joint pain and swelling, headaches, fever and rash on the rings at the bite of the tick. Untreated infections can lead to heart problems, visual or arthritis disorders. Lyme's disease can usually be successfully treated with antibiotics if it is caught in early stages.
