Abstract: Several bacterial vector-borne diseases that are spread by body lice and fleas disproportionately affect people experiencing homelessness. Given the potential severity of louse- and flea-borne diseases, understanding the knowledge and gaps in knowledge of homeless service providers will allow for targeted education and interventions to the reduce the risk of louse- and flea-borne disease among people experiencing homelessness. We propose a survey of knowledge, attitudes, and practices among homeless service providers regarding louse- and flea-borne diseases to identify these gaps in order to plan effective public health interventions and educational materials.
