RE: Homestead News - Ticks Now Causing Red Meat Allergies

in #homesteading6 years ago

Thanks for spreading the word about the Tick borne disease. I myself just got over Rocky Mountain Spotted fever and two of my friends now have the red meat allergy. Our area has been inundated with the Lone Star Tick in the last few years, it's so bad many people have stopped recreational activities outdoors. The Larval stage of the Lone star is what some call "Turkey Mites" and the Nymph stage has commonly been called "Deer Ticks." Opossums and Guineas are the top two predators of these ticks. We ordered twenty Guineas this spring to help with this plague of parasites.
