About the Georgia Mosquito Control Association
The Georgia Mosquito Control Association is a non-profit, professional organization founded in 1977. The membership consists of local and state government officials, commercial applicators, industry, and research/academic members from the state.
The Association was founded on the belief that mosquito and other public health pest control problems have a significant impact on the citizens of Georgia. There was a need for interested persons within the state to form an association for these purposes:
- To exchange ideas and procedures to enable mosquito workers to better perform
their duties;
- To protect the health and welfare of the people and their environment;
- To keep abreast of the latest and best methods for control of mosquitoes and
other pests so the citizens will be served;
- To encourage proper mosquito control, wherever feasible, and to help maintain
a positive public interest in areas where mosquito and other public health pest control is operative;
- To keep the general public better informed of the benefits of mosquito and other
public health pest control.
