Full TextAbstract
Rodents, as the most common mammal species around the world, are indicated as one of the main health problems to humans, especially in the populated areas. Since most of the rodent species are considered as suitable reservoirs for many zoonotic diseases and serious pathogens, their ectoparasitic fauna has become of special interest (Nava et al. 2003). With respect to the fact that Mashhad is one of the most densely populated cities in Iran, this investigation was carried out in various locations of Mashhad, Khorasan Razavi province, Iran including public sites, parks, farms, industrial constructions, excavation areas (e.g. sandy, rocky) from April 2013 to December 2014.
