Louisa Rotary Club Welcomes Wildlife Biologist Harley Weaver
The Louisa Rotary Club welcomed Harley Weaver, Northeast Kentucky Private Lands Biologist, as its guest speaker on October 15, 2026.
Weaver shared valuable information about Alpha-gal syndrome, a potentially serious allergic condition associated with bites from the lone star tick. He discussed the importance of recognizing the risks associated with tick bites and taking preventive measures, including using insect repellent, wearing protective clothing, and checking for ticks after spending time outdoors.
Weaver also highlighted programs available through the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources and the USDA that assist private landowners with wildlife habitat improvement, conservation, and responsible land management.
The Louisa Rotary Club appreciates Weaver for sharing his knowledge and providing helpful information about protecting personal health and preserving Kentucky’s natural resources.
