Viruses and Bacteria, super tiny, are NOT technically classified as parasites.
Ecto parasites include mites, lice and fleas. Ah nature!
Mosquitos are a type of vector for several parasites, most notably Lymphatic Filariasis, (aka Elephantiasis).
THREE CATEGORIES OF PARASITES:
Single-celled organisms (ex, protozoa)
Multi-celled organisms (ex, worms)
Ecto parasites (mosquitos, ticks, etc.)
