Mosquito Shield Franchise FDD, Costs & Fees (2025)

Mosquito Shield offers effective mosquito control services, providing outdoor pest management solutions to create mosquito-free and enjoyable outdoor environments.

Founded in 2001 in North Attleboro, Massachusetts, Mosquito Shield has established itself as a leader in residential mosquito and tick control services across the United States. The company began franchising in 2013, rapidly expanding its reach to over 200 territories nationwide.

Mosquito Shield offers proprietary services, including the Mosquito Protection Barrier™ (MPB), a patent-pending spray that eliminates existing mosquito populations and creates a barrier for a virtually mosquito-free environment. Their offerings also include Tick Shield™ for tick control and Event Shield™ for special event mosquito management.

What sets Mosquito Shield apart is its commitment to customized, responsive service. Unlike competitors that follow fixed treatment schedules, Mosquito Shield adjusts applications based on real-time weather conditions and mosquito activity, ensuring optimal effectiveness.

Number of units

Training

The training programs provided by Mosquito Shield Franchise, LLC are detailed as follows:

  1. Initial Training Program: The franchisor provides an initial training program for up to three individuals, which includes management and technical training. This program typically lasts between three to five days and must be completed before the business commences operations.
  2. Employee Training: Employees hired after the initial operation must attend and successfully complete the initial training program within 30 days of hire. This ensures alignment with the franchise's operational standards.
  3. Ongoing Training and Guidance: The franchisor offers guidance on operational standards, advertising, employee training, and administrative procedures. This includes potential additional training sessions as deemed necessary.

Territory Protection

Mosquito Shield Franchise, LLC provides territory protection through an "Area of Primary Responsibility" (APR), granting franchisees exclusive rights to operate within a defined geographic area. No other Mosquito Shield franchise can operate within this territory, ensuring market exclusivity.

While the APR secures the franchisee's operational area, the franchisor retains certain rights for broader marketing or activities that may indirectly impact the territory. This ensures a balance between franchisee protection and system-wide flexibility.
