Comparison of larval and nymphal infestations on a wide range of small mammal
hosts suggests that host abundance is an important factor affecting tick feeding.
In studies done in Virginia, white-footed mice were the most abundant hosts and

The principles regulating lone star tick abundance in relation to habitat are (1) a
population of vertebrate animals suitable as hosts for the active life stages, and (2
) an area with physiographic features that provide protection for the host, and ...
