  abstract = {{T}icks are the main vector for infectious disease pathogens in both humans and animals, and tick-borne diseases are currently spreading throughout {E}urope. {V}arious surveillance methods have been developed to estimate the burden and risk of tick-borne diseases and host exposure to tick bites. {T}he ultimate aims of these approaches are to determine the risk level of a tick-borne disease in a given area, determine its health priority, identify the at-risk population and propose specific countermeasures or complementary studies as needed. {T}he purpose of this review is to present the current methods for monitoring the circulation of tick-borne diseases and to highlight the use of salivary antigens as original and recently developed serological tools that could be useful for tick bite risk assessment and could improve the current surveillance methods.},
