This year, the Indian River Mosquito Control District (IRMCD) Commissioner Matt Erpenbeck and Executive Director Sherry Burroughs traveled to Tallahassee to speak with State legislators and regulatory officials to bring awareness and support for mosquito control programs.  Showing our commitment to our community and educating officials on our innovative science-based approaches and effectiveness as a special district. Additionally, they discussed key issues impacting mosquito control and contributions among FMCA members in mosquito-borne disease transmission, halting the spread of malaria and other mosquito-borne disease.
