Deer Ticks A Concern In the Valley

With the valley's sky-high deer population, concern is being raised about their tiny, parasitic passengers. Rothesay mayor Bill Bishop tells CHSJ news that the deer committee may issue a survey to individuals in the KV in the future to get their opinions on the issue.

He says that the bugs can cause harm to humans and other animals. Rothesay was copied on a letter sent by Quispamsis to the minister of health for a tick drag in the valley, to find out if there are any in the area. At 8 o'clock Wednesday morning Bishop will be at Quispamsis town hall for a discussion on the deer situation.
