Ticks are arachnids, obligatory hematophagous ectoparasites, and vectors of several species of protozoa, bacteria, and viruses that cause important diseases to vertebrates worldwide. In Brazil, the main ectoparasite affecting livestock is Rhipicephalus microplus, which is vector for the intracellular bacteria Anaplasma marginale, the etiological agent of bovine anaplasmosis. Recent advanc…
