The Old Folks Home

I didn't realize chickens ran free in so many places. Last month I read an article on the Washington Post about how some type of wood tick in Mexico they can't beat and and it's killing children mostly, as they are who are playing with their dogs in the dusty streets.

They have lots of pictures of the area, and I noted I did not see one chicken or guinea. Chickens can eat 80 ticks per day. I am sure they'd have them there if they thought it would help but this confuses me.

I have a subscription to WaPo so you can read it if you're interested:

They also keep the chigger/redbug population under control too.
