[QUOTE="JCDEERMAN, post: 5123230, member: 5787"] Very good post and thanks for sharing, Popcorn. Particularly the part about fire. Add another benefit to the list that I haven't seen talked about on here. Even burning the litter on the ground in hardwoods can vastly reduce the tick population. It is very low intense and easily done. If you remove the leaf litter and it doesn't rain for a couple days, most all the ticks should die, as they thrive in moist areas under that litter. Rotational burning in select-cut areas can vastly reduce ticks and are typically repopulated from deer and other critters entering those areas and they shed off, breed, etc....But doing this every 3 years or so can keep them in check. Pics like these makes my heart break. [/QUOTE]
