DELTA

Delta Mosquito and Vector Control District, founded in 1922, is a special district charged with protecting the public from mosquito-borne diseases and mosquito nuisances. We protect northern Tulare County including Visalia, Dinuba, Exeter, Farmersville, Woodlake, Cutler, Orosi, and Ivanhoe. Our team is committed to protecting public health through mosquito control activities and mosquito-borne disease surveillance... Delta Vector Control District uses integrated vector management (IVM) to reduce the size of mosquito populations and to interrupt the transmission of mosquito-borne diseases. IVM is an environmentally sound strategy that includes surveillance, community participation, and physical, biological, and chemical control methods to reduce the size of vector populations. IVM provides more effective and longer lasting control than any single strategy alone and helps to prevent pesticide resistance in vectors. Residents play a crucial role in this strategy.
