The purpose of the San Gabriel Valley Mosquito & Vector Control District’s Education Department is to heighten awareness of public health issues related to the proliferation of mosquitoes, the presence of other vectors and vector-borne disease, and residents’ responsibilities in disease prevention.

Public education through community programs is a vital part of our vector management program. It is very important that we get our message out to as many people as possible so that they can be proactive in protecting themselves, their families and their neighbors from vectors and vector-borne diseases. There are many different ways we work with communities to share information.
