Red Cedar encroachment and Tick relationship apparently. Look behind the Fawn in the video. Looks like a stand of mature Cedar.

Fire is the best thing to control ticks. More fire, fewer ticks. Cold weather doesn't kill them.

That’s awful. Seems like every deer I kill has little brown ticks on the white underbelly.

Back when I took the Hunter Ed course Rin had pics of fawns covered in ticks to the point I think Lille the fawns. The ticks would congregate at salt licks.

Deer can have a reduction of up to 20% in antler size just because of ticks. They are bad news bears, not only for deer but for humans also.

Make sure you’re sending fire every 2-3 years. Fire late growing season is magical. Not a fan of fire Nov-Feb but it has its small benefits.
