Summmary: The northern U.S sould prepare for surge in Lyme Disease this spring. Blame the fluctations in acrons and the mice population. why do acrons have to do with Lyme Disease?Acorn crops are vary from year to year, with boom and bust cycles influencing the winter survival and breeding success of white-footed mice. In the spring these Borrelia burgdorferi infected black legged ticks in forests look for a blood meal. Instead of them looking for white footed mouse they are looking for something a little bit bigger and different called mammals such as us.
Critique: I really dont like ticks and not a fan but this is kind of creepy. Didnt know that mice and acorns lead to Lyme Disease.
Imapct: This could probably not help our society or anything else but make it worse and it could also warn people to be careful when they go hunting.
