| Abstract/Contents: | Details the pest problem in Coachella Valley, California, and the steps that the Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District (CVMVCD) and the surrounding golf courses are taking to control the pests. Focuses on fire ants, reporting that "originally, the district tested courses in the valley for fire ant infestation and then left treatment to the golf course employees. But the severity of the situation caused the district to take more responsibility to control them." Concludes that "in addition to fire ants, superintendents use the CVMVCD, which checks and treats for various agricultural pests throughout the valley, to treat for mosquitos and eye gnats." |
