Isolation of tick-borne relapsing fever (TBRF) spirochetes has proven to be a useful tool to understand their distribution by geographic areas where the tick vectors inhabit. However, their isolation and culture are not easy and in general an animal model is needed to achieve this task. Here, argasid ticks were collected from a neighborhood in Ciudad Caucel, Merida, Mexico, and Borrelia puertoricensis was isolated...
