Description:In response to needs voiced by the mosquito control community, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Center for Infectious Disease, Division of Vector-Borne Infectious Disease sponsored ASTHO to develop a set of recommendations for creating sustainable state and local mosquito control programs. Because mosquito control involves many players, ASTHO convened the Mosquito Control Collaborative (MCC or the Collaborative), a body comprised of state, local, and federal representatives from public health, environmental, and agricultural agencies, as well as other organizations intimately involved with vector control and public health. Because mosquito control efforts begin at the community level, ASTHO invited the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) to join the project as a partner.
The following document consists of the interim recommendations developed by the MCC from February through June 2004. The purpose of this document is to serve as a catalyst for discussion. As state and local agencies learn more about effective mosquito control practices during the 2004 mosquito season, the interim recommendations, by necessity, will evolve. ASTHO is broadly soliciting feedback on the interim recommendations on behalf of the Collaborative from June through September 2004. After reviewing the comments, the Collaborative will develop final recommendations in winter 2005.
