A summary report on swimmer's itch in Quebec / [by] Sean Locke and David J. Marcogliese. : En152-1/234-2005E
Swimmer’s itch is a short-term immune reaction occurring in the skin of people accidentally infected by waterborne parasites of snails and birds or rodents. Reports of swimmer’s itch in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Basin have become more frequent since the condition was first described in 1928. This report provides a biological summary of the parasites that cause swimmer’s itch and reviews control measures studied to date. Its publication was made possible by the St. Lawrence Action Plan, a Canada-Quebec initiative aimed at understanding, protecting and restoring the St. Lawrence ecosystem.
