WORKERS ARE OUT COUNTING SPONGY MOTH EGG MASSES IN CLARE COUNTY
Spongy moth counters will be out counting egg masses in Clare County to inform our management efforts next year. 
Please do not be alarmed if you see spongy moth counters out near your homes or properties. 
All counters will have identifying Clare Conservation District shirts as well as signs on their vehicle. 

Thank you for being respectful as we work to control the spread of spongy moths.

A guide to landowner Gypsy Moth Management 

- About Us -

The Clare Conservation District (Clare CD) is a local unit of government that utilizes resources from public and private sectors to bring diverse groups together to solve local resource problems. As stewards of the land, we strive to protect watersheds by conserving forests and reforesting open spaces. We encourage stewardship responsibilities of landowners, and are the prime local source of environmental education.

The Clare Conservation District operates off of grants awarded, tree sales, and donations from the community. 

Your generous contributions will help to ensure the health and beauty of Clare County's natural resources both for today and for future generations to come. Every dollar invested in the District goes directly into implementation of hands on conservation projects which will build an environmental legacy we can be proud of. To promote our conservation efforts in the community, consider donating today.
