You must be registered to participate!Citizen science is the practice of public participation and collaboration in scientific research to increase scientific knowledge. The opportunity to contribute to science that fosters community health while simultaneously contributes to advances in global health and controlling vector borne disease is a powerful motivator that engages tens of thousands in mosquito surveillance citizen science. We introduce two international citizen science tools, Mosquito Alert and GLOBE Observer Mosquito Habitat Mapper, and we discuss their contributions toward building public awareness about the importance of individual and community engagement in mosquito surveillance and mitigation. We also describe some of the recent contributions of these tools to mosquito vector research.
