Topband: Ticks

[tony.kaz at verizon.net]

A neighbor had released a number of Guinea Hens that kept increasing in
numbers over the years and did a fine job with the ticks based on the white
towel method of checking for ticks. But the coyotes came and had some good
dinners and now no more Guinea Hens.

Tried that once.
The ones that didn't kill themselves by flying against the inside of the
coop were eaten by predators. They will not nest inside the coop.
Oh, and did I mention how loud they are? Ear-splitting.
