A<unk>  is a condition where a<unk>  acts as an ectoparasite. It is sometimes thought of as an animal disease. In humans, the primary concern from<unk>  bites is often not the ectoparasitism itself, but the potential for the<unk>  to transmit disease or<unk>  paralysis. Still, in certain populations, it is possible for<unk>  to be clinically significant. There is some evidence that Ixodes ricinus infected with Borrelia burgdorferi may become more efficient at<unk> . Home remedies (such as vaseline or matches) have been used in the past, but are not currently recommended.
