"Here's the thing nobody talks about: foxes are basically doing pest control that costs us nothing, and we're actively poisoning them for it.

Wisconsin lost 80% of its fox population between 1984 and 2009. Lyme disease cases went up 300% in that same window. Martha's Vineyard, which has almost no foxes, has Lyme rates five times higher than nearby Woods Hole, which is basically fox central. This isn't a coincidence—it's ecology.

White-footed mice are the main reservoir for Lyme disease. Foxes eat white-footed mice. Fewer foxes means more mice, more infected ticks, and you spending the summer paranoid about every bump on your skin. It's a straightforward chain.

So if you actually want to help instead of just posting about it: stop using rodenticide (it k*lls foxes, owls, and hawks when they eat the poisoned rodents). Secure your trash and chicken coops. Keep your cats inside. And the next time you see a fox, maybe don't immediately assume it's a threat.

The predator you're mad at is literally saving you from Lyme disease."

Open Thursday 20th- Saturday 22nd 10-6.  Plug and gallon sized perennial wildflowers and grasses available.

I love walking around the wildflower garden and finding bugs on the flowers. This is a Goldenrod soldier beetle on common yarrow.

Finally got a half way decent bee butt photo on an Obedient Plant early this morning.  I think she was sleeping!
