“Nothing but Indians, muskrats and bullfrogs could possibly subsist here” – Major Daniel Baker, Commander of Fort Saginaw, 1823
Rebecca Brandt, Manager of Bay County Mosquito Control in collaboration with Dr. Carl Doud of Midland County Mosquito Control, will present a historical backdrop of the plight of mosquitoes and malaria in 19th century Saginaw Valley and how changes in the region’s habitat helped settle this once “uninhabitable” land.
