Sign-Up to Monitor | Ways To Participate

There are two ways to participate in the Monarch Larva Monitoring Project:

  1. Commit to monitor regularly - If you have access to a site in which milkweed grows and that you can monitor regularly, we encourage you to monitor this site on a weekly basis during the time that milkweed is present. You will register as a Monarch Larva Monitoring Project volunteer, and provide detailed information about your site. Click here to register.
  2. Submit anecdotal observations - If you don't have the time or an available site to monitor regularly, we would still like to know about any observations of monarch eggs or larvae that you make. This method of participation is also for regular volunteers who may observe monarchs at locations other than their regular monitoring site. Click here to record an anecdotal observation.
