Is anyone implementing strategies to try to minimize the effects EHD in 2025? Maybe we could start a thread sharing ideas?

Does anyone put out treated rub areas for deer similar to what we do for cattle? Permethrin treated rub areas around mineral sites?

Because deer move so much more than cattle I don't think treating an area would have much effect. The ROI just isn't there.
Supposedly the ingredients in Anilogics products mimic the vaccine that cattle get and names like Lakosky see results when fed in large quantities. Garlic can keep midges at bay. I've seen guys discuss trying to put Ivermectin in their mineral/feed. I don't know if there's a definitive answer other than just trying to keep deer as healthy as possible.
