For example in the case of some Ixodes ticks, they do paratisize both mammals and reptiles. Ixodes pacificus will infest both the western fence lizard and mammals and is a competent vector for Lyme disease. The host reptile doesn't show any clinical effects, but there could be a potential risk for one to contract Lyme disease if they had reptiles in their collection that had attached I. pacificus and possibly other Ixodes ssp. if those ticks then attached to the person.
