Spring has sprung, as they say, and so has the Spring edition of The Skeeter!
There's the usual conference update, along with a bit of info about the drought we're all experiencing and what may be our cutest "what's that?" subject yet. (A significant rain storm across Hampton Roads and central Virginia the night before last made the cover slightly less topical, though groundwater levels do remain critically low across the commonwealth!)
Thanks to everyone who submitted content for this issue. You make this publication possible!
We hope you enjoy the issue, and what's left of what's been a (mostly) lovely spring!

In addition to the recap of our February conference, this issue features some fantastic articles on everything from pinning beetle specimens to this year's AMCA meeting in Puerto Rico. Click here or the photo above to view the newsletter.
Click here or the photo above for the summer issue with a deep dive dive of middling depth into the "Mosquito Bucket" viral phenomenon that gripped the nation this summer (and seems to have driven us all slightly insane).
Click here or the image above for the fall issue which features the winners of last year's photo contest—and the deadline for this year's is fast approaching, so be sure to get your entries in before the deadline on New Year's Eve!
Click here or the image above to see the winter issue. Contained within is mostly conference & election info for posterity, but be sure to check out this quarter's "what's that?" entry, which is, I think, pretty fun.
Thanks to everyone who submitted content for this issue. You make this publication possible!
