Ken & Julie Wuerful love spending time outdoors. They want you to love your time in the great outdoors as well, but realize only too well that sometimes the bugs will keep you from enjoying your time with Mother Nature. That's the reason they launched their franchise operation with Mosquito Squad several years ago in Michigan's Great Southwest and why they've signed on to help an even larger portion of the state.
Especially in light of concerns over the Zika Virus, the expansion plans by Mosquito Squad could prove to be welcome news for those who want to be mosquito free in their own backyard.
Mosquito Squad is the largest and most experienced home and commercial mosquito control firm in the nation, and Ken and Julie will now cover not only Southwest Michigan, but the South Central portion of the state as well.
Known as “The Squad,” the company specializes in eliminating mosquitoes from outdoor living spaces and is one of fastest growing in America. Recipients of the 2015 Cornerstone Chamber of Commerce Platinum Stake award, Mosquito Squad’s Ken and Julie are Michigan natives and love their time outdoors.
As the largest brand operating in the area, Mosquito Squad uses the latest EPA-registered mosquito control barrier treatments, larvicide and all-natural substances to eliminate mosquitoes from yards and outdoor spaces. Entrepreneur Magazine recently named Mosquito Squad as the number one ranked franchise in the pest control category, as well as a #2 ranking on its list of 10 Promising Franchises for Ambitious Entrepreneurs list. 2015 marked the fifth consecutive year that Mosquito Squad was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of America’s fastest-growing private companies; an elite group of just 14 privately-held firms that have sustained remarkable growth over five years.
Julie says news of the Zika virus "underscores that we made the right choice to expand Mosquito Squad to help our area. It’s imperative that homeowners take an aggressive approach to mosquito elimination and help the community reduce mosquito breeding grounds.” She adds, “We want to partner with our customers and offer do-it-yourself tips to help control mosquitoes and ticks in their own communities.”
The territories now covered by Mosquito Squad of Southwest and South Central Michigan include:
