蜱虫和蜱传疾病影响全世界的动物和人类健康，是造成重大经济损失的原因。目前已知的867种蜱中约有10%是家畜和人类广泛病原体的载体，也是直接由于其摄食行为造成损害的原因。列出了最重要的蜱种类及其引起的影响。对全球经济的影响被认为是巨大的，尽管给出了一些估计，但缺乏可靠的数据。蜱和蜱传疾病对动物生产和公共卫生的影响及其控制进行了讨论。
Ticks and tick-borne diseases affect animal and human health worldwide and are the cause of significant economic losses. Approximately 10% of the currently known 867 tick species act as vectors of a broad range of pathogens of domestic animals and humans and are also responsible for damage directly due to their feeding behaviour. The most important tick species and the effects they cause are listed. The impact on the global economy is considered to be high and although some estimates are given, there is a lack of reliable data. The impact of ticks and tick-borne diseases on animal production and public health and their control are discussed.
