Loving the Less Lovable: Mosquitoes
by Penguin Court

Mosquitoes. It’s hard to fathom that they have a purpose other than annoyance! The Westmoreland Conservation District’s West Nile Virus Coordinator, Chrissy Edwards-McCune, will share the role mosquitoes play in our ecosystem and discuss how the Conservation District is delegated from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection’s vector control program to monitor mosquito populations by setting various kinds of traps and sending them to a lab to be identified to species and for pathogens.
