      Infection with a flea sapropyra happens owing to hit of the infected excrements of fleas on open wounds and the damaged integuments, such as raschesa. The disease incubation interval in this case makes from 5 to 15 days. A characteristic symptom of a flea typhus is emergence on integuments of rash of bright pink color. Rash develops, as a rule, for the 4-5th days of a disease and is shown not only on a trunk or extremities, but also and on a face. Symptoms are similar to a lousy sapropyra, but the disease proceeds much easier.

As a tank for an infection for the majority of types of a rickettsiosis animals, as a rule, wild, in particular rodents as their disease develops asymptomatically act. From the infected animals blood-sicking insects catch and become disease carriers.

      In addition for the majority of types of rickettsioses as tanks of an infection also mites of which transmission of infection from generation to generation is characteristic (transovarial transfer of a rickettsiosis) can act. The natural ochagovost of the majority of types of a rickettsiosis is caused by existence in the nature of tanks of an infection. A tank for a number of types of a disease, for example, for a lousy sapropyra, is the person.
