Bite Back Tour 2021 Recap
Season One Insights
THE GOAL 💪🏽
The Bite Back Tour was developed to safely educate residents during the pandemic about mosquitoes 🦟 and the diseases they spread to people.
THE TOUR 🚌
Just like a band, the Bite Back Program outreach team created a virtual tour of the District and hosted informational conversations targeting each of our 26 cities (and some unincorporated areas in the San Gabriel Valley).
We scheduled our tour according to data provided by our Surveillance department, starting with the cities that have the highest risk of mosquito activity. Additionally, we enhanced neighborhood support to the "high five" at-risk cities through door-to-door and Mosquito Bites Live efforts.
For those who buzzed into the Bite Back Tour, thank you for your engagement. We hope that you enjoyed meeting mosquito control staff, local leaders, and learning about which repellents work, how to apply, and how dense vegetation may bring more bites to your community. 🏡
