[Northkeep] Chemin Noir

[Hugh & Belinda Niewoehner]

  Actually, I believe you are right.  From everything I've read the 
amount of rain has more to do with it than anything.  On drier years, 
there are less places for them to breed.  Both fleas and ticks enjoy 
cool moist areas as well (not counting sand fleas I guess).

Others go dormant, and it may not touch the eggs.  Remember, places far more north than here still have insects, and the Mosquito is still the Minnesota state bird.
