Horse-sickness and the sheep disease which resembles malaria only exist in localities where there are certain definite mosquitos ; like, malaria, too they were formerly called mias- matic disease. Horses do not take horse-sickness even when they are exposed to conditions of climate and altitude reputed to be dangerous, provided they are protected from mosquitos by means of wire-screens. The " heart-water " of ruminants is transmitted by a tick (the bont-tick—Amblyomma hebraeum)..
