        First field trial treating rodents with isoxazoline baits (Fluralaner) reduced Ixodes tick loads on wild mice, bringing us one step closer to breaking the transmission cycle for tick-borne diseases in natural settings. academic.oup.com/jme/advance-ar… umontreal Médias Public Health PHAC Merck
