Birds have a potential of spreading ticks via bird migration routes. In this study, we screened 170 ticks removed during autumn 2010 from 55 birds belonging to 10 species for the presence of tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). In total, TBEV RNA was detected in 14% of I. ricinus tick samples obtained from different birds species. The results of this study indicate the possible role of migrating birds in the dispersal of TBEV-infected ticks along the southward migration route.
鸟类有可能通过鸟类迁徙路线传播蜱虫。在本研究中，我们对2010年秋季从属于10个物种的55只鸟类身上采集的170只蜱虫进行了筛查，以检测是否存在蜱传脑炎病毒（TBEV）。总体而言，在从不同鸟类物种采集的蓖麻硬蜱样本中，14%检测到了TBEV RNA。这项研究的结果表明，候鸟在TBEV感染蜱沿着南迁路线传播中可能发挥的作用。
