Colder temperatures augment viability of an indirectly transmitted songbird pathogen on bird feeders

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Inanimate surfaces that are contaminated with infectious pathogens are common sources of spread for many communicable diseases. Understanding how ambient temperature alters the ability of pathogens to remain viable on these surfaces is critical for understanding how fomites can contribute to seasonal patterns of disease outbreaks.
