I hunt in West Central Illinois and we have heard of a few isolated cases but not that many. I think this year was very light compared to last year. I think EHD is pretty localized. It seems like some farms get hit hard while 4 miles away no deer die at all. Sorry to hear, lets just hope your areas get a good freeze soon. We've gotten a decent amount of rain in the last few weeks so you shouldn't have too many more problems but again a freeze will end it all, at least for the year.
