    Hello everyone

    Wanted to pass some info on about another disease being carried by the Deer Tick. Human Ehrlichiosis, according to the docs here at the UW this disease is becoming more common & may be as bad or worse than Lyme’s disease. http://chppm-www.apgea.army.mil/documents/FACT/18-013-0406-HumanEhrlichiosisJTF-April2006.pdf

    A coworkers mother has been in the ICU for a week now and they believe this is the cause, now she’s receiving the proper care an on the road to recovery.

    Make’s me wonder why I can’t wear a Flea & Tick Collar for cats around my ankle when outdoors???
