Several diseases are caused by viruses, bacteria, or even parasites. Sometimes, these microorganisms cannot infect humans (or other animals) by themselves, so they rely on other organisms -called vectors- to carry them around and transmit the disease from one host to another. A well-known group of vectors is arthropods. Arthropods have a hard exoskeleton, segmented bodies, and jointed legs. They are incredibly diverse and can be found in various habitats worldwide. They include disease-carrying vectors such as mosquitoes, sand flies, kissing bugs, and ticks.
