Join the Mosquito Squad team
and make your living protecting your community.

Home improvements. Outdoor living. Homeowners are building equity in their investments and having fun doing it. Build equity into your future. Grow your new business with the explosive outdoor living category. If you are looking for a thriving add-on or full-time business, Mosquito Squad is the answer. We’re a fast growing franchise concept that focuses on the elimination of unwanted outdoor pests such as mosquitoes and ticks. You can make the yards in your community safer, more enjoyable environments.

Homeowners are investing tremendous sums of money in outdoor living areas. Our mission is to ensure that homeowners can use their new pool, patio, gazebo or deck throughout the entire year – without the troublesome nuisance and dangerous risks associated with pesky mosquitoes and disease-infested ticks.

Why is our franchise concept so appealing?

  • Multiple Revenue Streams – There are three different revenue opportunities available as a franchise owner: our Barrier Spray Program, Misting System and Special Event Spraying. Each one has a different price point allowing you to appeal to all homeowners in need of an outdoor pest management solution.
  • Low Initial Investment – The franchise fee is $22,500 and includes a geographic protected area of approximately 350,000 in population. Total start-up capital of $20,225 to $54,625, which includes the $22,500 initial franchise fee, will be needed for necessities such as a vehicle, initial inventory, tools, equipment and launch marketing. For qualified parties, up to half of the franchise fee may be financed.
  • Residual Income Growth Each Year – A key advantage is the trailing revenue stream from ongoing barrier sprays and the refills of automatic misting systems. This "annuity" dramatically increases revenue and profits once a customer base is established. You provide a valuable service and unbeatable convenience your customers while assuring yourself a continuing revenue stream. It’s a win-win situation.
  • Quick Start-Up – In most cases you can hit the ground running within 30 days. Your initial three-day training will take place in Richmond, Virginia.
  • Experienced Support Staff – As with all Outdoor Living Brands franchise concepts, you can count on unparalleled support from a smart, professional support staff – in all the key disciplines you’ll need. Their proven, well-respected track record of lead generation and marketing success brings extensive customer acquisition, sales and support skills, and technical knowledge to new franchise owners.
  • Extensive Marketing Tool Kit – From business cards to direct mail, Mosquito Squad has created impactful marketing materials to kick your business into high gear right away. And if a customized communication needs to be created, our in-house marketing team will get the job done.

Who is the ideal franchise owner?

An ideal candidate wants an add-on or full-time business. Sales and marketing skills are a plus but are not mandatory due to our extensive training program. Other essential ingredients of a successful franchise owner include:

  • The desire to run your own business, work outdoors and be your own boss.
  • Demonstrate strong follow-through skills in implementing necessary marketing campaigns.
  • Willingness to understand and follow a sales process.
  • Have the ability to train and manage sales and installation personnel.
  • Possess the ability to network and establish relationships with key referral partners.
