“…Furthermore, an increase in the prevalence rates could also have an epidemiological impact on human and veterinarian diseases as the risks of D. gallinae transmitting more pathogens would increase as well (Valiente Moro et al 2005.…”

Recent surveys and sample collection have conWrmed the endemicity of Dermanyssus gallinae in poultry farming worldwide. The reduction in number and eYcacy of many acaricide products has accentuated the prevalence rates of this poultry ectoparasite observed more often in non intensive systems such as free-range, barns or backyards and more often in laying hens than in broiler birds. The lack of knowledge from producers and the utilisation of inadequate, ineVective or illegal chemicals in many countries have been responsible for the increase in infestation rates due to the spread of acaricide resistance. The costs for control methods and treatment are showing the tremendous economic impact of this ectoparasite on poultry meat and egg industries. This paper reviews the prevalence 1 C rates of this poultry pest in diVerent countries and for diVerent farming systems and the production parameters which could be linked to this pest proliferation.

“…Besides having direct effects upon their hosts, poultry mites can transmit viral, rickettsial and protozoan diseases among birds (Kettle 1995. D. gallinae has been recently reported to be an experimental vector of salmonella enteritidis (Valiente et al 2005). It is also a vector of equine encephalitis virus among poultry (Durden 1993).…”

The common blood feeder mites of poultry are from the genera Dermanyssus and Ornithonyssus. Their presence are problematic for the producers either through potential direct effects on weight gain, egg production or sperm production in roosters or as nuisance pests on workers. They also cause anaemia in birds and play a vector role for several human and animal diseases. Five poultry farm buildings of Vikarabad area of Rangareddy district were visited. Samples were collected from a variety of sites, including beneath feed troughs, inside cage fittings and fastening clips, under egg conveyer belts and under manure belts. Heavily mite infested feathers were plucked from three to five individual birds and kept in closed plastic covers. Samples were processed and mounted permanently by using DPX and species differentiation was done. Besides this litter materials and soil samples from the farm were also collected. Massive mixed infestations of Dermanyssus and Ornithonyssus mites were found. The morphological characters provided here can be considered as a practical tool for species differentiation and as these blood feeder mites were most prevalent and important pests of poultry, public health aspects of these parasites should be considered.

“…La bacteria se multiplica y se transmite a la próxima generación por vía trans-estadial, con retransmisión a otras aves por picaduras 33 . De este ácaro se ha aislado B. burgdorferi, B. anserina, agente de la espiroquetosis de las aves, Listeria monocytogenes, Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae y los virus de la encefalitis equina del oeste, encefalitis de San Luis, encefalitis equina venezolana y virus del Nilo Occidental 24,[34][35][36] . En algunos casos se ha demostrado la transmisión del agente a las aves, no así del ácaro al hombre 25 .…”

Animal mites transmissible to humans and associated zoonosisMites that affect animals (acariasis) can occasionally be transmitted to humans by incidental contact producing pruritus and dermatitis. Animals such as dogs, cats, mice, birds and reptiles. harbour several mite species. Hemophage mites and those that feed on lymph have the potential of transmitting important zoonotic agents (cuales??). The presence of lesions of unclear origin and a history of contact with pets or wild animals should alert towards the possibility of acariasis. Diagnosis is based on direct visualization of the mite,analysis of its morphology and obtaining information on the animal host. Awareness of these acarosis and the responsible care of pets and animals are the most relevant preventive measures.Key words: Mite, mite infestation, acariasis, zoonoses, scabies, sarcoptic mange, avian mite, rat mite. Palabras clave: Ácaro de animales, acariasis, zoonosis, sarna, sarna sarcóptica, ácaro de roedores, ácaro de aves. Introduccióniferentes especies de ácaros infestan a animales (acariasis) y algunos de ellos causan enfermedad en el hombre (acarosis). Los ácaros pertenecen al phylum Arthropoda, clase Arachnida y subclase Acari. Son de pequeño tamaño, alrededor de 0,2 a 0,4 mm, poseen tres pares de patas en su fase larval y cuatro en el estado de ninfa y adulto.Más de 30.000 especies han sido descritas en el mundo con numerosos géneros y especies, que pueden ser ectoparásitos y endoparásitos. Varios de estos ácaros tienen importancia médica, especialmente en medicina veterinaria 1,2 . Se distinguen de los arácnidos por la presencia de gnatosoma y la falta de división entre el abdomen y el cefalotórax. Algunos excavan la piel como Sarcoptes scabiei. Abandonan al hospedero una vez que se alimentan 1 . En el hombre producen una dermatitis con lesiones generalmente papulares, pruriginosas y en ocasiones con reacción alérgica, secundaria a la saliva que se deposita mientras se alimentan 3 . Los ácaros hematófagos o los que se alimentan de linfa, tienen el potencial de transmitir diversos agentes patógenos virales, bacterianos o parasitarios. Los ácaros de los alimentos y del polvo no son vectores de agentes zoonóticos 4,5 . Las diferentes especies de áca-ros zoonóticos y agentes transmitidos se detallan en las Tablas 1 y 2.La presente revisión tiene por objetivo contribuir al conocimiento de los principales ácaros de animales de D compañía y de otros animales, que se pueden transmitir al hombre en forma accidental. La importancia de algunos de ellos es que son transmisores de agentes infecciosos. El conocimiento de estos agentes permite su sospecha diagnóstica, al considerar los antecedentes epidemiológicos asociados y una toma de decisiones y tratamiento adecuados. Ácaros de perros y gatos Sarna sarcópticaEl año 1978 Fain demostró la existencia de una especie de la familia Sarcoptidae altamente variable, al analizar algunas de las 30 especies del género. Según el hospedero animal se identifican las siguientes variedades Sarcoptes scabiei var bovi...
