Surveillance Operation

 

Field Work

Throughout the season we actively search for mosquitoes in their habitat in order to effectively and efficiently distribute our limited quantity of product.  As our district comprises over 600 square miles, we coordinate our resources using GIS maps and GPS systems.

Adult Surveillance

Our surveillance program utilizes numerous CO2 traps which attract and collect mosquitoes in localized areas.  This allows us to monitor the populations throughout the district and is the basis for detecting any disease within our borders.

Lab Work

A recent addition to our operations is a lab facility which will allow staff an area to identify the mosquito species we collect and any disease they may carry.
