MOSQUITO CONTROL CAPACITY SURVEY Amie Worthington Medical Investigator

Survey Objectives Determine current mosquito control practices within cities and counties in Kansas Discuss reasons why and when mosquito control occurs Quantify yearly costs for labor, pesticide, and equipment Assess city and county abilities to respond to a mosquito-borne disease outbreak

Background Larvacide – kills immature mosquitoes – Objective to manage mosquito population before they emerge as adults Adulticides – kills adult mosquitoes – Objective to complete the larval management programs by reducing adults that lay eggs

Background Funding for vector control programs has declined since WNV emerged Kansas does not have a state vector control program

Methods Online survey of 30 questions using Qualtrics® Sent to city and county clerks listed in Directory of Kansas Public Officials – 551 cities – 105 counties Analysis completed in Microsoft Excel®
