“…Typically, the disease first presents with an erythema migrans rash at the site of the tick bite, followed by flu-like symptoms and later by debilitating arthritic, dermatological and neurological manifestations. The bacteria are transmitted by Ixodes species ticks, although other Ixodidae ticks [1], [2], [3], [4] and haematophagous arthropods [2], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14] have been implicated in carrying the bacteria. Bacterial reservoirs of the disease are usually small mammals, birds and occasionally reptiles [15], [16].…”
