Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health.

Hunting and Hauora: Pig Hunters and Poaka in Aotearoa New Zealand
New Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 2, August 2026.ABSTRACT Though invasive, wild pigs (poaka) were fundamental to the survival of both Māori and Pākehā during colonisation, and they remain an essential source of kai (sustenance) today. Utilising a Whanganui case study, 24 participants, semi‐structured interviews, and thematic analysis guided by Kaupapa Māori principles, describe hunters' interests in ...

Effect of deer reduction on abundance of the deer tick (Ixodes dammini).
The Yale journal of biology and medicine, 1985 To evaluate the role of deer in regulating the abundance of the deer tick (Ixodes dammini) we attempted to treat with acaricide, but eventually removed, about 70 percent of deer from Great Island, Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Deer were captured in box traps, a corral, an entanglement net, and with rifle-fired tranquilizer.

A Focus of Deer Tick Virus Transmission in the Northcentral United States
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999 We screened salivary glands from adult deer ticks collected near Spooner and Hayward, Wisconsin, to determine whether deer tick virus, a recently described flavivirus, occurs with other tickborne agents in the upper Midwest. Intraacinar inclusions suggestive of replicating virus were detected in 4 (4.6%) of 87 ticks.
