🦟 Proud Moment! 🦟 I’m incredibly proud of the work I have done over the last four years with the American Mosquito Control Association (AMCA) to create the national standard for mosquito control training —resources that are now available FOR FREE to any pest management professional, vector control professional, public health professional or anyone else interested in learning about science-based mosquito control. These materials provide actionable, science-based guidance on integrated mosquito management (IMM) and preparing for mosquito-driven public health emergencies. Whether it’s day-to-day mosquito control or responding to an outbreak, these tools equip professionals with the knowledge they need to make a real impact in their communities. It’s an honor to contribute to AMCA’s mission and to know these resources are helping those on the frontlines of protecting public health. Thank you to the AMCA, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the incredible team of experts who collaborated on this important work! Check out below an article in PCT Magazine featuring some of the training materials available! #MosquitoControl #MosquitoManagement #PublicHealth #PestManagement #VectorControl #EmergencyPreparedness #AMCA #ProfessionalTraining #PestControl #IntegratedMosquitoManagement #PestManagementProfessional #IPM
