Description:Diseases spread by mosquitoes impact human health, animal health, tourism, outdoor recreation and fitness activities, and even natural disaster recovery efforts. Many at-risk communities, however, do not have adequate protective programs in place today and building support for appropriate and scalable programs is not an easy task.
The Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) developed this guide to help states and communities across the nation explore and expand their mosquito control capacity. Based on research and expert communications guidance, this guide is intended to further on-the-ground mosquito control efforts and provide tools that mosquito control partners can use to educate others about the need for adequate mosquito protection. ASTHO sought the expertise of policymakers and community decisionmakers to create the first edition of this guide, published in 2009.
ASTHO acknowledges the technical support from its Vector Control Workgroup in creating this second edition and is grateful for the financial support and technical assistance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The project received direct funding through the CDC Cooperative Agreement to Improve the Nation’s Public Health Infrastructure with State Public Health Agencies/Systems, Award No. CDC-RFA-OT13-1302CONT17.
