Abstract

Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) are hematophagous arthropods that can transmit various pathogens to animal hosts and humans causing detrimental infectious diseases including Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) (Farhadpour et al. 2016). They can readily be identified by their morphological traits. They are generally divided into three families of Nuttalliellidae, a small monotypic family present in South Africa, Argasidae (soft) and Ixodidae (hard) ticks. The latter has a worldwide distribution and are more frequent than soft ticks in temperate regions (Service 2008). Most ticks have a wide spectrum of animal hosts. Only a few species prefer a specific host species for their blood feeding activities (Estrada-Peñ a et al. 2004). Ticks usually feed on a variety of Mammalia, Aves, and Reptilia comprising tortoises (Service 2008). Hard ticks transmit a wide range of pathogens such as viruses, rickettsia, bacteria and protozoa to birds and mammals including man. Most of the diseases caused by these pathogens are carried out through tick bites. In most tick vectors, the transovarial transmission of certain pathogens could occur (Service 2008).
