This  is considered the most serious external parasites of Australian  cattle,  though they also affect cattle accross the southern hemisphere  and the  southern states of the USA. It is able to complete its life  cycle in  just 2 months under optimal conditions and lay 2000 - 3000  eggs during  this time. It is important in its ability to act as a  vector for  ''[[Babesia]] bigemina'', ''[[Borrelia theileri]]'' in South America  and in  Australia of ''[[Coxialla burnetti]]'' and ''[[Anaplasma]] marginale''.  These  organisms can be passed down for up to 5 generations of ticks  regardless  of the hosts on which they feed as they can be passed  transovarially  between generations.
