3rd Annual Photo Contest
We know you have some awesome photos from this past mosquito season. Whether it’s candid field shots, selfies in the lab, or glamor shots of those pesky skeeters, we want your photos!
Forget alluring sunsets and artsy architecture. We want the real stars of Virginia’s summer: mosquitoes, their larval habitats, and the amazing, dedicated professionals who fight them every day.
So, dust off that lens and get snapping—search the depths of your cell phones, computers, and SD cards for the perfect shot. Who knows? Your photo just might be good enough to win our contest and be showcased on the VMCA website!
Choose from 8 categories; please limit 1 photo submission per category per person.
Accepting submissions through December 31st.
Student Poster Competition
Posters are currently being evaluated by the judges. Winners will be contacted soon.
We'll be celebrating our 10th Anniversary Event with the first place prize doubled to $1,000!
