Screwworm Infestation Found in Local Dog – And the City Wants Us to Pay for the Cleanup?
So, I just saw the news that a screwworm infestation was discovered in a stray dog down on Maple Street. And now, our tax dollars are going to "bio-hazard remediation" and "public awareness campaigns"? Give me a break. This is just common sense: we need to stop coddling these pests and start using the basic insecticides that have worked for decades. Next thing you know, they’ll be asking us to fund a "screwworm sensitivity workshop" for the squirrels. The vet down the road said a simple spray does the trick, but no, we have to waste money on a committee to study it. Common sense, people. Just spray the problem.
