  • Title: Concurrent Borrelia burgdorferi and Babesia microti infection in nymphal Ixodes dammini.
    Author: Piesman J, Mather TN, Telford SR, Spielman A.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1986 Sep; 24(3):446-7. PubMed ID: 3760136.
    Abstract:
    Ixodes dammini nymphs were examined for evidence of concurrent infection with Borrelia burgdorferi and Babesia microti. A total of 19 nymphs (18.6%) from Nantucket Island were simultaneously infected, as were 24 nymphs (8.2%) from Naushon Island. These observations are consistent with a common reservoir host for both I. dammini-transmitted pathogens.
