My parents, sisters, brother-in-laws, and their contingent of little kids, plus my youngest sister's dog.....went up and hiked the trail to check out the deer hunting property on Mother's Day....
....not a single tick found on anyone after a few hours in the woods.
One of my brother-in-laws had a trail cam he wanted to check on the way back to...so their kids drove with my folks back to the cabin so he and my sister could go check it....about an hour in the woods he said....easily had a hundred, maybe a buck twenty of ticks on them.
Worst year for ticks in history and yet none on the property I torched. It's countless little dividends like that which I didn't even think about that are starting to add up.....it took a lot of time and work to fully burn 70 acres or so....and avoid the authorities, made the incident report a couple times, but it's already well worth it.
There's plenty of trail cam pics showing deer with a ton of ticks on them. It might be a minor stressor, but it's definitely a stressor I'm sure they're looking to avoid.
Burn your property....seriously...it needs it. Whenever there's a red flag warning light that shit up....it's the only time it'll actually burn.
I'm convinced that MN.is the hotbed for Lyme's that it is due to none of the forest region seeing fire for a hundred years now. The woods need fire to be natural.
