Environmental drivers of tick density in UK dairy farms: implications for livestock health and agri-environment policy

2025-11-27

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Background</bold> Ticks are important vectors of livestock and human pathogens in Europe. Environmental policies promoting woodland creation and habitat restoration are increasing habitat suitability for <italic>Ixodes ricinus</italic> but impacts on livestock tick-borne disease risk remain unclear. This study examined how landscape features influence tick distribution on UK...
