Lyme Disease study committee

The Lyme Disease Study Committee met last Monday.  At that time I learned that-

• Our second annual deer hunt is successfully proceeding without issues
• Dover did a study that found more ticks in shady areas that sunny areas
• Westboro is planning on starting a deer hunt to lower the number of vehicle collisions with deer, as they feel it is increasing their auto insurance rates.  They have been experiencing 23-33 collisions a year.
• Medfield experiences about 45 vehicle collisions with deer a year.
