Are you prepared for things that may bite on #Halloween night?
If #mosquitoes are active in your neighborhood, remember to dress (long sleeves/pants) and defend (EPA-registered repellent) against bites.

@AMCAtweets @RoyBlunt @PattyMurray @rosadelauro @SenRubioPress @PhilBryantMS @GovAbbott @MassGovernor @GovWhitmer This is extremely important as we’re seeing many health departments stretched too thin and currently unable to address both Covid and vector related issues. https://t.co/WP96RzecAh

@MVCAC1 @nehaorg A8 VectorSurv is becoming available in multiple states and will hopefully be national at some point. #VectorControlChat

@nehaorg A7. #VectorControl is one piece of a holistic approach to #OneHealth and healthy communities. #VectorControlChat 🦟

@TargetSpecProd A4 WHO, in addition to EPA and CDC, has also urged folks not to take resources away from vector control. We cannot let one public health crisis fuel another. https://t.co/sKZKOuaQR7 #VectorControlChat

@SGVMosquito @nehaorg Many jurisdictions in the United States do not have full IPM programs or the capacity for tackling mosquito populations after flooding. Contractors such as VDCI, the AirForce and Dynamic Aviation often step in to help. #vectorcontrolchat https://t.co/M240WmbG0p

@PestWorld @nehaorg A5. VDCI is here to help! https://t.co/M240WlU58R

@nehaorg Mosquitoes are inevitable after the flooding associated with hurricanes. Having surveillance data and a plan in place is essential. https://t.co/HU1zEpPvqp

@TargetSpecProd This is such a shame. Part of the reason CDC and EPA had to post this article. WHO is saying they're expecting to see double the malaria cases this year.

@nehaorg A3 We purchased several drones which are great for treating areas too big for a backpack and too small for full-size aircraft. Mostly used for larvicide applications right now. #VectorControlChat #VDCI

@SGVMosquito @nehaorg So true! The American Mosquito Control Association has a great Legislative and Regulatory committee that is very active at the National and State levels. #WashingtonDays #VectorControlChat #AMCA

[Broox Boze @BrooxBoze]

@nehaorg A2: A couple weeks ago the CDC and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) put out a recommendation to continue mosquito control surveillance, and control, during non-mosquito-related public health. #vectorcontrolchat

[Broox Boze @BrooxBoze]

@nehaorg A2 Surveillance is the foundation of any mosquito control program. While many groups are limited in budget and cannot provide a full integrated mosquito program surveillance allows them to know what the problems in their area are and respond accordingly. #vectorcontrolchat

[Broox Boze @BrooxBoze]

@MVCAC1 @nehaorg This is the only way to effectively manage mosquito populations and protect public health. #VectorControlChat
