Home » Mosquito, Termite & Rodent Control Board » Topics » Report a Problem » Identify Your Bug
The New Orleans Mosquito, Termite and Rodent Control Board staff has a number of entomologists, experts on different kinds of insects, who can help citizens identify unknown bugs. Citizens with an unidentified bug or bug problem can request assistance with identification from Board staff.
Residents or pest control professionals with questions about an insect or spider can bring a sample to the Board at 2100 Leon C. Simon Drive any day Monday – Friday, between 8am and 4 pm for identification and treatment recommendation.
It is important to handle the specimen carefully to prevent antennae, legs, and other body parts from breaking. The Board will identify the specimen within 1 to 2 business days depending on the condition of the specimen.
Citizens may also fill out the online form below and upload pictures of the specimen for the Board in place of submitting an insect specimen. NOTE: identification is not guaranteed and is assisted by having actual specimen in hand.
Whether submitting online, by mail, or in person, all requests for identification must have a completed identification form.
Items marked in red are required.
