Blair County Emergency Management
The Blair County Emergency Management Agency in Altoona, PA, oversees the Mosquito Borne Disease Control Program, which aims to reduce the transmission of West Nile Virus (WNV) through a comprehensive mosquito monitoring and collection initiative. This program, managed in collaboration with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, focuses on both surveillance and control measures to mitigate mosquito populations and protect public health.
Through larval and adult mosquito surveillance, the agency identifies mosquito species and their breeding habitats, enabling targeted control strategies. The program emphasizes the elimination of standing water and employs environmentally friendly larval control products when necessary, ensuring effective management of mosquito populations while keeping the community informed about any adult control measures that may be implemented.
