Tick Issues in Animals
Ticks are external parasites that feed on blood and may cause skin irritation, allergic reactions, weakness, or transmission of certain infections. Animals exposed to grasslands, bush areas, wildlife, or warm climates are at higher risk of tick attachment.
Regular tick checks, environmental management, and parasite prevention strategies are important for reducing exposure. If an animal shows signs such as lethargy, limping, paralysis, fever, or unusual behaviour after tick exposure, prompt veterinary assessment is recommended.
Ticks are found across the world and can affect animals and humans in many ways. Common types include tick paralysis ticks, brown dog ticks, bush ticks in Australia, as well as species carrying Rickettsia, Ehrlichiosis, and Lyme-related organisms.
Ticks in Australia
Australia is home to around 73 different species of ticks, with many found in New South Wales.
The majority—around 70 species—are harmless and do not cause major concern for animals or people.
However, three species are considered significant for stock owners and people living around bush areas are mainly in Queensland and New South Wales and Victoria:
- Cattle Tick – known to affect cattle health and productivity in northern areas.
Paralysis Tick (Ixodes holocyclus):
-
Found mainly along the eastern seaboard of Australia (QLD, NSW, VIC).
-
Its saliva contains neurotoxins that can cause paralysis in pets, livestock, and even humans.
-
Considered the most dangerous tick species in Australia.
Cattle Tick (Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus):
-
Found in northern Australia (Queensland, Northern Territory, northern NSW).
-
Does not cause paralysis.
-
Its main impact is transmitting blood-borne diseases (like babesiosis and anaplasmosis) to cattle, which can cause severe illness and production losses.
Bush Tick (Haemaphysalis longicornis):
Understanding the types of ticks in your area helps guide prevention and care practices.
