The Roscommon County Spongy Moth Program is accepting applications for Spongy Moth Surveyors.
Interested in the environment, biology and your community? This is a great opportunity for seasonal, outdoor work that offers a chance to learn more about the invasive spongy moth (formerly gypsy moth).
Surveyors will travel throughout Roscommon County inspecting for spongy moth egg masses. As members of this community forestry management program, you will learn hands-on environmental science and your work will impact the future of Roscommon County forests. You will work with a team, talking with landowners and gathering data in an outdoor environment.
Assignments last a minimum of eight weeks and may possibly run into December. Pay begins at $15.65 per hour depending on experience. Mileage reimbursement provided.
Interviews will begin September 7th, 2026 and training will begin approximately the week of September 14th, 2026.
Applications accepted until the full crew has been hired.
Roscommon County is an equal opportunity employer.
