The Orange County Mosquito and Vector Control District provides services for: Mosquitoes, Red Imported Fire Ants, Rats and Flies.

For insect identification requests, Orange County residents must complete the insect identification form  either prior to dropping off the specimen or at the District at the time of drop off.  Specimens may be dropped off at the District office or mailed in.

The District provides FREE mosquitofish to all Orange County residents for placement on their property only. Residents can pick up fish at the District or may have a service request generated by phone or online to have them delivered.

If you find a dead bird, and it appears to have died within the last 24 hours, carefully, and without touching the bird, place the carcass in a plastic bag and put it in a cool or shady place. Call the Dead Bird Hotline at (714) 971-2421 ext. 117. Not all birds will qualify for testing.

The OCMVCD Mosquito Education classroom program is conducted in collaboration with classroom teachers within our District. The program teaches students to think about the interdependent relationships between mosquitoes, the community and public health.

The District participates in community events, providing educational information on the activities of the District and what you can do to assist in the shared responsibility of vector control.
