We developed a rapid, effective technique for surveying for Ornithodoros turicata, a vector of African swine fever virus using gopher tortoise burrows. When working under a time constraint during tick collection, vacuuming substrate from the top meter of the burrow followed by sifting for soft ticks outperformed CO2 traps.

Bats play a major role in the circulation of zoonotic pathogens. Mites (Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) may facilitate the long‐term maintenance (and even local recurrence) of Bartonella‐infestations. Mites may transmit several distinct Bartonella strains, which cluster phylogenetically close to Bartonella species known for their zoonotic role ...
