The manuscript [1] presents a comprehensive study on the seasonal and climatic distribution of ticks in Tehran province, Iran. The research is well structured and provides valuable insights into the diversity and abundance of tick species in different climate zones. The study is relevant to the field of veterinary parasitology and has potential implications for tick control strategies in the region.

The study highlights the significant economic and epidemiological impact of ticks as ectoparasites and pathogen vectors in livestock.
1. “Material and methods - Sampling”: For the tick sampling in this manuscript, what method did you used in this study (ie, how did you decide which tick samples to include and which samples to exclude)? How did you ensure that the sample is representative of the true distribution of ticks in the study area?

How did you ensure that the sample is representative of the true distribution of ticks in the study area? The distribution and frequency estimates from this sample might not be extended to the whole tick population if the sampling is biased.
Response: In this study, tick samples were collected from 1623 livestock animals (including chickens, camels, cows, pigeons, dogs, and sheep) infected with ticks.

Ticks are of outstanding medical and veterinary importance because they transmit severe and dangerous diseases to humans and animals [1]. In humans, most diseases caused by spirochetes and rickettsia are transmitted by ticks. In addition, these arthropods cause severe diseases such as paralysis, encephalitis, and tularemia [2]. Moreover, ticks cause livestock financial losses worldwide and in Iran, where the annual impairment caused by ticks is estimated at US $13.9 to US $18.7 billion [3].

The association between human cases and nymphal activity can be in part attributed to the small size of nymphal ticks compared with adults, resulting in prolonged or undetected attachment. Human exposure to ticks depends on the density of infected ticks, but this association is strongly modified by local conditions, including human behavior [19,20].
