VARIABLE STRENGTH OF FOREST STAND ATTRIBUTES AND WEATHER CONDITIONS ON THE QUESTING ACTIVITY OF IXODES RICINUS TICKS OVER YEARS IN MANAGED FORESTS.

Variable strength of forest stand attributes and weather conditions on the questing activity of Ixodes ricinus ticks over years in managed forests.

Given the ever-increasing human impact through land use and climate change on the environment, we crucially need to achieve a better understanding of those factors that influence the questing activity of ixodid ticks, a major disease-transmitting vector in temperate forests.We investigated variation in the relative questing nymph densities of Ixode
