Mosquito Monday Challenge Update - 30 August 2021

Thank You!

We are so thankful for all your contributions and observations (including more than 6,000 photographs) submitted during the Mosquito Habitat Photo Challenge. But just because the challenge is over doesn’t mean that our work on eradicating mosquito breeding sites is done! Keep observing and learning. Your photographs will continue to be useful data.

Don’t forget: Submit your photographs by August 30.

Keep Learning

• Visit the Mosquitoes Toolkit where you will find a library full of videos, activities, articles, and more all about mosquitoes.
• Register for the September 9 GLOBE Mission Mosquito webinar: "Investigation Pathways" and learn about climate change modeling, NASA data, and the Mission Mosquito Science Notebook!

Up close…and farther!

Here are a few mosquito larvae and water source photos that we thought were very good. Do you know what would have made them even better?  A Land Cover observation showing the broader landscape! It’s not too late to send in nearby land cover observations.
