Who we are:

The goal of the LFICD is to improve the quality of life in our towns and to lower public health risks from mosquito-borne disease by controlling mosquito populations. Mosquito control is accomplished primarily through the use of hand and aerial application of environmentally safe mosquito larvicides. We treat only after it has been determined that the number of larvae meet the threshold established by best practices and the Vermont Agency of Agriculture.

​

How we are funded

The LFICD is supported by grants from the State of Vermont and contributions from the towns of Bridport, Cornwall and Weybridge.

​

Board of supervisors

The LFICD is currently managed by a volunteer board of seven supervisors.

​

  • Bridport: Dinah Bain and Judd Markowsk

  • Cornwall: Christine Chapline, Bob Cluss , and David Zarowin

  • Weybridge: Gary Rodes and Anne Starvish

 

We are actively seeking new board members; please contact us at info@lficd.org if you're interested.
