While vector-borne diseases often dominate news articles about mosquito control efforts and focus on human health effects it is important to realize that control activities are not just the responsibility of public health officials but environmental health officials as well. Modern mosquito control can have a low environmental impact and be scientific, sustainable, and effective. In the wake of natural disasters or disease outbreaks as invasive mosquito species spread inland, many areas are left without historical data which is often required for access to support funds from federal agencies like FEMA and CDC.
