Paul the disease is in the soil and if you really think they will get sick and die off you are truely clueless on this.
This disease has been in Colorado for well over 30+ plus years. Here in Wi which you are not from deer
are being over hunted now please go take some time and do some research please.
One last thing the DNR is mostly in the hands of the politicions in our state and not sure if back in the hands of DNR will help either. *Amended*
I do find it humerous a guy in Mi telling us here Wi what is wrong.

Out,
