Yet Another Problem From Ticks

Just this week my family learned that a friend hunting turkeys on our wooded lands north of Lawrence picked up a few ticks on his April hunt. At the Dr. for another matter, they ran a blood test and found he’d tested positive for Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. Fortunately, they got treatment started before symptoms arose and all should be well.

I’ve also heard several reports lately of the disease being found in Missouri.   Read more.
