Update: While this webinar was not recorded, Roger has shared his presentation slides in PDF file format. Thank you, Roger, for helping us learn more about the risks of mosquito- and tick-borne illnesses and steps we may take individually and together to confidently enjoy the outdoors.

Whether in your backyard, walking Land Trust trails, or other outdoor adventures, staying safe from diseases transmitted by insects and ticks is an important part of being prepared to enjoy connecting with nature. In this free webinar, environmental scientist Roger Wolfe will help us learn about mosquitoes and ticks, efforts to manage their habitats, and how we can reduce our risks individually. As the Wetland Restoration Biologist at the Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection, Roger coordinates the Wetland Habitat & Mosquito Management program.
