As a result, purchasing and installing two $100 storm doors through Home Depot was suddenly about to cost us $639. I understand that Home Depotâs complete installation is convenient for consumers, and charging consumers for that convenience isnât unreasonable.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Tick-borne diseases, which afflict humans and other animals, are caused by infectious agents transmitted by tick bites. Tick-borne illnesses are caused by infection with a variety of pathogens, including rickettsia and other types of bacteria, viruses, and protozoa.ecause individual ticks can harbor more than one disease-causing agent, patients can be infected with more than one pathogen at the same time, compounding the difficulty in diagnosis and treatment. Currently (2015), there are 16 known tick-borne diseases of humans (four discovered since 2013).
Of the over 80 types of ticks active in North America, there are only seven species that can transmit disease to humans through its bite. The deer tick, or blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis) can transmit Lyme disease and other illnesses to its hosts. The capitulum on the deer tick is much longer than in other common ticks, such as the dog tick. 2  The capitulum is positioned to the front, and visible from above. 3  The female deer tick has a larger capitulum than a male deer tick.
