Prevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi and Babesia microti in mice on islands inhabited by white-tailed deer.

J F Anderson, R C Johnson, L A Magnarelli, F W Hyde and J E Myers

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.
