Effects of deer density on tick infestation of rodents and the hazard of tick-borne encephalitis. I: Empirical assessment

[Display omitted] ► Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus infection in ticks and rodents was negatively correlated with deer density. ► Number of ticks feeding on rodents was maximum for a threshold value of deer density. ► Complex spatial interactions between deer, rodent and ticks affect TBE hazard....
