Definition
English
:
Bacterial, viral, or
parasitic diseases
transmitted to
humans
and
animals
by the bite of infected
ticks
. The families
Ixodidae
and
Argasidae
contain many bloodsucking species that are important pests of man and domestic
birds
and
mammals
and probably exceed all other
arthropods
in the number and variety of
disease
agents they transmit. Many of the
tick-borne diseases
are zoonotic.
