Lyme411 - You Don't "Get It" .....Until YOU Get It! Learn more, Saturday, May 19th
Ticks and Lyme seem to be the constant topic of discussion this year as the population of the little creeps as really skyrocketed.  Two reasons; one - everyone seems to be able to guess is the result of having a mild winter; two - we are two years out from a heavy fall mast crop.  Critter populations seem to explode after such a heavy mast crop event, mice, squirrels, deer and all the other vermin that can be a host and carriers of Lyme.  The ecology of Lyme is one of the many things currently being studied and not fully understood as of yet.  Check out more at the Lyme 411 website and plan to attend "A Team Approach" to Managing Lyme and Tick Borne Illnesses Saturday, May 19th, Noon to 5pm at the Beane Center, 35 Blueberry Lane, Laconia.
