Swimmers Itch: How to Report Merganser Nests, Broods Sightings and Swimmer’s Itch Cases on Higgins Lake

If you spot any Merganser Ducks and/or their broods on Higgins Lake, or any nesting sights, click on the first link below to access the Swimmer’s Itch Solutions LLC website page to report your sighting.  Swimmer’s Itch Solutions LLC is the name of Dr. Curt Blankespoor’s new company that is contracted by the Higgins Lake Swimmer’s Itch Organization (HLSIO), and supported by the HLPOA, for 2017 to help reduce Swimmer’s Itch on our lake.  Dr. Curt Blankespoor was formerly associated with SICON which had done the Swimmer’s Itch Control in 2015 and 2016.  With the formation of Swimmer’s Itch Solutions LLC, SICON has been dissolved.

Additionally, should you or someone you know contract a case of Swimmer’s Itch this summer on Higgins Lake, the link below will direct you to another area of Dr. Blankespoor’s Swimmer’s Itch Solutions LLC website where you can report your case of Swimmer’s Itch.

Thank you for taking the time to make these reports — they will help Dr. Blankespoor/Swimmer’s Itch Solutions LLC to further reduce the infection rate of snails with the Swimmer’s Itch parasite and therefore the incidents of Swimmer’s Itch on Higgins Lake.
