Residential mosquito licensing
 

Due to the demand for mosquito control around public housing to protect the health of Virginians it is important that we train and license individuals accordingly. The existing tests are based on commercial application methods and equipment that are not used in residential mosquito control resulting in a high failure rate. We need a separate form of testing that will result in properly trained technicians with the knowledge of the equipment that is being used to provide such services.
