The mission of the Monmouth County Mosquito Extermination Commission is to provide County residents and visitors with protection from arthropod-borne diseases, while maintaining an environmental comfort level that is suitable for the enjoyment of outdoor activities.


Welcome to the Monmouth County Mosquito Extermination Commission website.  The Commission is here to provide mosquito control and tick-testing services to the residents of Monmouth County.  Our strategy for mosquito control relies on an Integrated Pest Management approach where we focus on controlling mosquito larvae versus broad control of adult mosquitoes.  Much of our efforts involve source control-- reducing or eliminating the standing water where mosquito larvae flourish.  Where possible, the Commission works with nature to control mosquitoes by introducing fish that eat mosquito larvae or cleaning a stream to improve water flow.  Our use of pesticides is based on surveillance data and follows state and federal regulations as well as recommendations provided by Rutgers University.
