“…In contrast, conventional acaricide applications have been shown to be more uniformly effective against host-seeking I. scapularis adults (Schulze et al 1987(Schulze et al , 1992 and nymphs (Curran et al 1993;Schulze et al 1991Schulze et al , 1994Solberg et al 1992;Stafford 1991b), and A. americanum adults and nymphs (Mount et al 1976;Mount 1981Mount , 1984Sardelis et al 1989;Solberg et al 1992).…”

A single application of granular carbaryl approaching the lowest recommended rate to the shrub layer of a forested area in late spring significantly reduced the abundance of Ixodes scapularis Say nymphs throughout their peak activity period, but had little effect on Amblyomma americanum L. nymphs. Factors influencing the efficacy of the application are discussed. The possible explanations for the lack of efficacy of granular carbaryl against A. americanum, including behavior, formulation, and application rate, are discussed.

“…Mainly the ecology and biology of Amblyomma americanum (Linnaeus, 1758) were studied in state parks of Oklahoma in the 1970s and early 1980s (Semtner et al 1971a,b;Robertson et al 1975). Focus was on developing strategies involving vegetation management and aerial and tractor-mounted application of insecticides to eliminate the Lone star tick from large areas (Hoch et al 1971;Mount 1981Mount , 1984Mount and Dunn 1983;Mount and Whitney 1984). Since the mid-1980s, nothing has been done regarding this important issue in Oklahoma state parks and no resources are available for use by the state park system to assess risk of encountering ticks and acquiring tick-borne illnesses.…”

prevalence rates between 56 and 0% differing among parks. The greatest risk of encountering ticks was at Sequoyah State Park in May 2015, with pooled prevalence rates of 93.3% (Rickettsia sp.) and 13.3% (E. chaffeensis). Results indicated that risk of exposure to ticks and tick-borne pathogens depended on the state park during summer months. These data could be used by the park system to alert visitors to risk of encountering pathogen-infected ticks in a given state park.
