  • Title: Prevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi and Babesia microti in mice on islands inhabited by white-tailed deer.
    Author: Anderson JF, Johnson RC, Magnarelli LA, Hyde FW, Myers JE.
    Journal: Appl Environ Microbiol; 1987 Apr; 53(4):892-4. PubMed ID: 3555339.
    Abstract:
    Borrelia burgdorferi and Babesia microti were isolated from 35 of 51 white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) and meadow voles (Microtus pennsylvanicus) captured on two Narragansett Bay, R.I., islands inhabited by deer, the principal host for the adult stages of the vector tick, Ixodes dammini. Immature ticks parasitized mice from both islands. From 105 mice captured on four other islands not inhabited by deer neither pathogen was isolated, nor were I. dammini found.
