I am pleased to share the second manuscript from my MSc research on sustainable #tick control using an attract-and-kill strategy, published with @springernature.com in Experimental and Applied Acarology
Isoxazoline is a new class of antiparasitic #drugs for #tick and #flea control in companion animals.
Researchers found isoxazoline passes active substances into the environment via animal feces, causing off-target toxicity and disrupting ecological balance.

#Tick Tock
A heartbeat
A #monitor
A test
A race
An alarm
Time running
Escaping from today
Because the ugly
Is coloring the picture grey
Making us think
It's OK
But even in sleep
We'll have to pay
For every life
Led astray
#2wordprompt
Those who monitor time
twenty-four hours of the day
obsessed by the constant ticking of a clock
watch time drift away
#2wordprompt #monitor #tick
your harvest is so #bountiful, I #claim half as bounty
Bounty for what?
For not taking it all
you are #befogged, a #tick has infected you
not at all, I #monitor your production
#vss365 #vssdaily #wss366 #2WordPrompt
#Open Sesame! - looted!!
you didn't #monitor, so
now get out, you are booted
#tick tock time you were scooted
#7syllablesentence #2WordPrompt
#2wordprompt
After 3 days
I couldn't find
The source
The #tick
Not a clock
Not metal on metal
Nor wood
Nor glass
Not a tink or a clink
Or a thud or a clunk
Not a clack, click, flap, slap, tock, drip, or shudder
Something simple
Something to #monitor
And ponder
Not a bomb
...surely...
Right??...?
There was a mutiny on the HMS #Bountiful. On the #monitor the mutineers watched the #furious captain and his men drift off in an escape pod. They were all bureaucrats. Let the officious XO #tick off their meagre supplies, at last there would be a use for the man.

Monitoring clocks
For the workday's end tick-tock
slow as a watched pot.

Can someone ask #Luna #Tick if this constitutes a war yet?
All members of a normal Congress would care that USA is at war, but this isn’t a normal Congress.

Fascinating @monashuniversity.bsky.social research showing how a #tick protein can switch off harmful #inflammation. A single #evasin targeting multiple #chemokines could open new paths for treating RA, MS, #cancer & more. Nature still has a lot to teach us.

Best practices for #tick removal in terms of preventing #disease transmission seems to lack scientific validation.
I've written a piece on the topic here:

(Looking for critique! And suggestions for additional papers!)
#PublicHealth #BestPractices
Few studies examine the effect of different #tick removal techniques on #disease transmission. This means "best practices" for removing attached #ticks to prevent tick-bourne illness lacks scientific validation!

I would like to formally apologize. I crawled up John Davidson’s ass during the BAFTA awards, and made him say the N-word. But I was paid by BAFTA so his documentary would make a little more money now the truth is out. #bafta #Tick #TheTick
Happy #MicroscopyMonday!

Happy Year of the #Horse!
Let's learn about Equine Piroplasmosis - a malaria-like parasitic disease of horses spread by #tick bites. Symptoms vary from benign to deadly, and, as in humans, is tricky to diagnose as tests rely on the presence of antibodies:
