Protecting public health through Integrated pest Management

The goals of the District are to prevent new vector sources from developing, to abate existing vector populations and their sources in order to protect public health and comfort, to reduce the level of vector populations throughout the District, as well as reduce vector and human interaction.

Additionally, the District’s environmental goals are to reduce mosquitoes with increased larviciding and incorporation of biological control measures, while being environmentally responsible by reducing adulticiding. Water soluble and non/petroleum-based products are the first choice of the District. Overall reduction of pesticides while maintaining minimal mosquito populations is the long-term goal of the District.
