Scrub typhus is transmitted to humans and rodents by some species of trombiculid mites (--chiggers--, Leptotrombidium deliense and others). The mite is very small (0.2 -C 0.4mm) and can only be seen through a microscope or magnifying glass. Humans acquire the disease from the bite of an infected chigger (3,4).
