However, we seem to see PILES of dead deer every year due to EHD, right in our own back yards. The vector or transmitting agent for EHD as we all know is a biting midge. More specifically a member of the genus culicoides of the family Ceratopogonidae. In short they are aquatic biting FLIES. Mosquitos are aquatic flies and we control them in a good number of cities and small towns with great success. Aerial applications of insecticides is just one method to control for aquatic flies. There is also long lasting time released pellets or dunks. There are biological methods such as adding predatory minnows to a body of water and other predatory insects. All one has to do is google control methods for culicoides and biting midges and you will get pages of research on techniques and materials that help control them. Why can't the game and fish use some of the money we give them to control these midges to, oh IDK, maybe try to PROTECT the deer herd? No, I guess thinking the game and fish would want to protect the deer herd is silly. They seem more interested in protecting mountain lions, banning stuff, creating more regulations, furthering the governors political agenda, and increasing their own budgets that we as sportsmen then have to pay for. EHD DOES NOT NEED REGULATION!!! It needs sound management and control which in my opinion our game and fish is WOEFULLY UNQUALIFIED to implement. Apparently it's much easier to ban and regulate the sportsmen into oblivion than it is to do some EHD research (Maybe call NDSU Entomology (bugs) Dept for some assistance), put together a control program, staff it, equip it, and them implement it like the game managers the game and fish claim to be. I'm SICK of hearing about more regulations and bans. We don't need them. We need the game and fish to do their jobs and work to protect and expand the deer herd for the good of the sportsmen. Isn't that what they are paid to do???</p></blockquote><p></p>
