Nb. = number, Prev. = prevalence, Pre-Tx = mice captured before application of the treatment, Tx = mice captured during application of the treatment.
In 2016, there was not enough animal captured during the Pre-Tx period to allow data interpretation.
aThe number of B. burgdorferi-infected mice (Bb+) divided by the number of mice captured (n).
