MissQuito: Empowering Women in Mosquito Control

MissQuito is a women-led mosquito control franchise founded in 2020 in Marietta, Georgia. Headquartered at 155 Woolco Dr, Marietta, GA 30362, the company began franchising shortly after its launch. MissQuito provides eco-friendly mosquito, flea, and tick control services to both residential and commercial clients. As part of the Rollins Inc. family of brands, the franchise benefits from strong corporate backing and industry expertise.

The brand differentiates itself by focusing on empowering women in a traditionally male-dominated field. MissQuito offers a turnkey business model that requires no prior pest control experience, making it accessible to aspiring female entrepreneurs.

MissQuito uses environmentally responsible treatments that are safe for families and pets. With a strong emphasis on community service and high customer satisfaction, MissQuito stands out as a purpose-driven brand in the pest control industry.

Training

Missquito provides a structured training program designed to prepare franchisees and their management team for successful operation. The franchisor emphasizes the importance of training as part of the initial investment and business setup. Here are the key components of the training:

1. Initial Training Program: Missquito includes all training costs in the Initial Franchise Fee, excluding travel, lodging, meals, and incidental expenses. Franchisees are responsible for arranging these for themselves and their management team. The number of trainees may vary, but Missquito can require a minimum number to attend.
2. Management Supervision Requirement: The franchise must be supervised on-site by either the franchisee or a designated manager who has completed the training. This ensures direct oversight by someone who understands the business operations thoroughly.
3. Ongoing Access to Manuals and Standards: Franchisees receive access to proprietary training materials and manuals that detail operational procedures, marketing strategies, and quality standards. These materials are part of the confidential and proprietary information protected by the franchise agreement.

Territory Protection

Missquito provides its franchisees with a defined territory, which is formally designated in the Franchise Agreement and referenced in Exhibit B. This means that each franchisee is given an exclusive geographic area within which they are authorized to operate their mosquito control business. The territory structure is intended to prevent internal competition among Missquito franchisees and protect their market.

However, Missquito retains some rights that can impact the exclusivity. If Missquito or an affiliate leases a facility in a franchisee’s territory at the time of the agreement, the franchisee may be required to assume or sublease that location. Moreover, Missquito does not participate in site selection beyond this, and franchisees are otherwise responsible for their operational premises.
