That is why DHS, along with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR), is asking fishermen age 50 and over to take part in an online survey about where they fish, what fish they eat, and where they get their information on safe fish consumption. http://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/News/PressReleases/2013/051413.htm Thu, 09 May 2013 12:00:00 CST http://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/News/PressReleases/2013/050913.htm Wisconsin’s warm spring weather will mean more blacklegged tick activity, and state officials are urging people to take precautions against tick bites when spending time outdoors.
