About Us Mosquito Joe Franchise

Mosquito Joe began in 2009 with four Norfolk residents who wanted to rid their backyards of the blood-sucking insects. Three years later, the business was offering franchise deals. Today the company has 147 franchisees that cover 288 territories in 34 states. 

It’s no secret that mosquitoes know how to ruin outdoor fun. They constantly show up uninvited to ruin outdoor parties, sporting events, games, BBQs, family time, and special events. With the recent news surrounding mosquito-borne illnesses, there’s no better time than now for people to turn to mosquito control services. Mosquito Joe is your solution to make outside fun again. We provide mosquito control services to residential and commercial customers, repelling and killing outdoor pests such as mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. Our technicians are trained mosquito control experts who apply barrier spray solutions that keep your yard swat-free for 21 days or install misting systems, which offer a more permanent solution. We also provide services for special events to keep your guests chatting and laughing instead of scratching and slapping.

Meet Our Franchise Family

The Mosquito Joe franchise family is made up of over 142 franchise partners from a variety of backgrounds: pilots, teachers, veterans, tech professionals, small business owners, landscapers, moms, and more. We have owner-operators, investor-operators, husband-wife teams, family businesses – you name it. What’s most important as a Mosquito Joe franchisee is to have strong customer service skills and the desire to make a difference in your community.

Despite their range in backgrounds, our franchisees have all learned that Mosquito Joe enables you to build a successful business with recurring revenue streams serving both residential and commercial customers.

Mosquito Joe Franchising & the Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program

Becoming a part of the Mosquito Joe family means more than joining a franchise, it means being a part of a network of individuals who not only seek to make outside fun again for their customers but who truly desire to make a positive impact in their local community.

Mosquito Joe was recently admitted into the Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program (PESP) established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Through this partnership, our goal is to provide low-risk pest management, to ensure customers can enjoy their outdoor spaces without the hassle of mosquitoes, ticks and fleas and with the peace of mind that Mosquito Joe is taking every precaution necessary when handling, applying, and disposing of our products.

Program Information

Created by the Office of Pesticide Programs Environmental Stewardship Branch (ESB) in 1994, the PESP program seeks to increase the education of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and reduce the amount of health and environmental risk associated with using pesticides in areas that people live, work, play, and farm.

What This Means For Customers

Mosquito Joe’s partnership with PESP demonstrates our commitment to providing low-risk outdoor pest control for residential and commercial properties. As part of a small number of pest control companies and organizations with a membership, we are dedicated to educating our customers on the importance and impact of integrated pest management.

Integrated Pest Management Approach

According to the EPA, an Integrated Pest Management approach is “An effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices. IPM programs use current, comprehensive information on the life-cycle of pests, and their interaction with the environment. This information, in combination with available pest control methods, is used to manage pest damage by the most economical means, and with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment.”

What This Means For You 

From our branding, level of support, and expertise, Mosquito Joe continues to stand out among our competitors. Our network of franchisees is able to not only fulfill their dreams of business ownership but to do so with a company they can truly be proud of. As a member of the PESP, Mosquito Joe’s goals are to educate our customers on the importance of outdoor pest control and the appropriate preventative actions they can take to protect their loved ones.
