I could be wrong, I thought that Lyme disease was caused by deer ticks. I know it's a big LI problem, but I don't know about here in TV, I haven't heard anything about deer being here.

The other thing that is a concern for me here is Lepto. While on LI my vet advised the lepto vaccine, but yet in upstate NY they thought I was crazy. I've seen possum here, possum urine spreads lepto yet there seems very little awareness and even less concern. I'm not getting this, are the Fl possum healthier than the LI possum?
