The Bureau of General Environmental Services encompasses programs in four broad areas: food, milk, on-site wastewater, and institutional services.

Entomology Program

Within the bureau, a public health entomologist directs the statewide entomology/vector control program, assisting all four programs through identification of insects and rodents, consultation on public health pest management, and prevention/control of insect-transmitted disease outbreaks.  In addition, the entomologist works closely with municipalities, providing expertise and advice on mosquito control.
