Every Day a Small Flock of Guinea Hens Consumes Thousands of Ticks

If you’re looking for a natural way to keep your yard free of ticks, fleas, and mosquitos while also reaping the benefits of fresh eggs and potentially delicious meat, consider raising guinea fowl.

While not as well-known as other backyard birds like chickens, turkeys, or ducks, guinea fowl are renowned for their tick-hunting abilities. While research on their tick-control abilities is limited, farmers and homeowners alike have reported success in using these birds to eliminate ticks from their properties.

According to reports, a small flock of guinea hens can eliminate thousands of ticks each day. For example, Linda Stevens of Marshall, North Carolina claims that her guinea fowl, chickens, and turkeys totally removed ticks from her 10-acre property, which “used to infest every plant and blade of grass.”

While guinea fowl are excellent tick hunters, they also have other benefits. They are known for their ability to repel mosquitos and flies, and are even capable of eating snakes. Additionally, their eggs are reportedly just as good and healthy as chicken eggs, but are smaller and more challenging to obtain due to their free-range nature.

It’s important to note that while guinea fowl can be helpful in controlling tick populations, they should not be the sole method of tick prevention. Other preventative measures such as tick repellent and protective clothing should also be taken, and it’s important to properly care for your birds and ensure they are receiving a balanced diet.

In conclusion, if you’re looking for a natural, effective, and potentially rewarding way to control ticks and other pests on your property, consider raising guinea fowl. With their tick-hunting abilities and other benefits, these birds could be a valuable addition to your backyard or farm.
