As a result, purchasing and installing two $100 storm doors through Home Depot was suddenly about to cost us $639. I understand that Home Depotâs complete installation is convenient for consumers, and charging consumers for that convenience isnât unreasonable.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Tick-borne diseases, which afflict humans and other animals, are caused by infectious agents transmitted by tick bites. Tick-borne illnesses are caused by infection with a variety of pathogens, including rickettsia and other types of bacteria, viruses, and protozoa.ecause individual ticks can harbor more than one disease-causing agent, patients can be infected with more than one pathogen at the same time, compounding the difficulty in diagnosis and treatment. Currently (2015), there are 16 known tick-borne diseases of humans (four discovered since 2013).
Ticks are vectors of Lyme disease.. Black-legged ticks (Ixodes scapularis) are responsible for transmitting Lyme disease bacteria to humans in the northeastern and north-central United States. On the Pacific Coast, the bacteria are transmitted to humans by the western black-legged tick (Ixodes pacificus). Ticks are related to spiders and mites in the Arachnid Class. The black-legged tick falls within the family Ixodidae, or hard ticks.
