A preliminary survey of domestic rodent species and their ectoparasites tick, mite and lice was carried out in ten centers of Menoufia (Quesna, Shebeen El-Kom, Berka El-Saabe, El-Bagour, El-Shohada, Tala, Menoff, Searth El-Lian, Ashmon and El-Sadat) Governorate. Frequency of rodent species and ectoparasites indices (tick, mite and lice) were recorded in spring (2009). The main species of rodent was Norway rat, Rattus norvegicus, the grey-bellied rat, Rattus rattus alexandrinus, the white-bellied rat, Rattus rattus frugivorus and the house mouse, Mus musculus. The common tick species attacking rodents were: Rhipicephalus sp. and Hyalomma sp. The common mite species attacking rodents were: Dermanyssus sangineus, Orithonysus bacoti, Haemolaelaps glas-gowi, Laelaps nutalli, Radfordia sp. and Myobia sp. The only common lice species was Polyplax spinulosa. The fur mites Radfordia sp. and Myobia sp. were recorded at Quesna, Searth El-Lian and El-Sadat centers on R. norvegicus for the first time at Menoufia Governorate.
在米努夫省的10个中心（库斯纳、谢宾库姆、贝卡萨阿贝、巴古尔、舒哈达、塔拉、梅诺夫、塞尔特利亚恩、阿什蒙和萨达特）对当地啮齿动物物种及其体外寄生虫蜱、螨和虱子进行了初步调查。于2009年春季记录了啮齿动物物种的频率和体外寄生虫指数（蜱、螨和虱子）。主要的啮齿动物物种有褐家鼠、黑腹鼠、果腹鼠和小家鼠。攻击啮齿动物的常见蜱类物种有：扇头蜱属和璃眼蜱属。攻击啮齿动物的常见螨类物种有：血红异皮螨、柏氏禽刺螨、格氏血厉螨、纳氏厉螨、雷氏螨属和肌螨属。唯一常见的虱子物种是多板棘虱。在米努夫省，雷氏螨属和肌螨属这两种皮螨首次在库斯纳、塞尔特利亚恩和萨达特中心的褐家鼠身上被记录到。
