We will train volunteers to monitor the Park for mosquitoes living in water-holding containers associated with human activity (tires, cans, bowls, bottles, buckets). This program will provide data on the times of year when the mosquitoes are most abundant and how the different species utilize various containers. The results may provide some insight into potential public heath concerns. A website for the public will be developed to display photographs and natural history of each mosquito species collected from the Park.
