Understanding Insecticide Resistance – Part I Basic Principles of Resistance Development and Detection Before Product Failure Mosquitoes are highly effective disease vectors, transmitting illnesses to humans, pets, and livestock. While the most prominent mosquito-borne diseases vary by region, some—like malaria and dengue—are now spreading to new areas, including recent cases in the United States. During […]
The Importance of Understanding Resistance Mechanisms and Management Theories Insecticide resistance occurs when genetic changes in mosquitoes, driven by insecticide exposure, compromise control efforts in the field. Laboratory and field tests play a critical role in determining whether an insecticide or product remains effective. In this webinar, Janet McAllister will discuss resistance mechanisms and their […]
To perform effectively, our workforce must not only understand the technical aspects of environmental health but also be adept at working within the emergency response system. There exists a significant opportunity for our environmental public health workforce to acquire specialized emergency response training. This enhancement would strengthen their ability to respond effectively during crises. With the […]
We are looking forward to seeing you July 14 - 17, 2025, at our 2025 Annual Educational Conference & Exhibition in Phoenix, Arizona, and virtually, where we invite you to discover "Your Oasis in the Desert." In a time when challenges in the field of environmental health continue to evolve, resiliency is more important than […]
Rodents are among the most persistent and destructive pests in the United States, posing serious health, safety, and structural concerns in both residential and commercial settings. This webinar explores the foundational principles of rodent control through a close look at the most commonly encountered species in the United States, highlighting how their biology and behavior […]
For decades, rodent management has relied on the same old formula—bait, traps, and routine technician visits. But despite enormous investments from global cities and industries, rodents continue to thrive, wreaking havoc on infrastructure, utilities, food systems, and supply chains. With billions in damages each year and traditional methods falling short, the pest control industry faces […]
Over the past decade, the United States has endured more than 300 major disasters—hurricanes contaminating drinking water, wildfires fueling toxic air emergencies, floods overwhelming wastewater systems, and storms turning debris into widespread public health threats. The cost of being unprepared is too high. Every disaster tells the same story: communities with strong preparedness assessments and […]
Bed bugs can infest a wide range of environments—from homes and hotels to public facilities—creating unique challenges for prevention and control. In this webinar, Dr. Aaron Ashbrook, Assistant Professor of Urban/Peri-Urban Entomology at Louisiana State University, will examine how bed bugs are introduced and persist in different settings, and how their biology influences their survival […]
As bed bug challenges evolve, so do the tools and technologies used to manage them. In this webinar, Dr. Aaron Ashbrook, Assistant Professor of Urban/Peri-Urban Entomology at Louisiana State University, will explore the latest advances in bed bug control, including new insecticides, detection methods, and integrated management strategies. We will also discuss the environmental implications […]
The National Environmental Health Association presents "From Droppings to Doorstep: The Public Health Impact of Flies and Roaches,"a one‑hour webinar to explore the critical species of public health importance, learn practical strategies for integrated pest management (IPM), and discover how to support healthier environments through prevention and communication.
