VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., Aug. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Mosquito Joe, a leading mosquito, tick and flea treatment company serving residential and commercial customers, wrapped up its second quarter with impressive results. The brand celebrated 31 newly-opened units in 2018, introducing the concept to new states and expanding the brand's already booming presence in existing states.
"Mosquito Joe has continued to outperform previous growth numbers, which demonstrates that our franchisees and infrastructure can drive record results," said President of Mosquito Joe, Lou Schager. "This year, we've been able to grow into new markets, and we're well positioned to reach our growth goals for 2018."
With the brand's ongoing expansion initiatives, Mosquito Joe has enjoyed strong interest from new states including Utah, California and Alaska. The team also plans to continue building out in existing states with large populations of mosquitoes like New Jersey, Connecticut and Wisconsin, with over 20 new territories already sold and slated to open in 2019.
In 2018, Mosquito Joe earned a spot on Entrepreneur Magazine's Franchise 500 list as first in the Pest Control category for the second year, in addition to their Fastest-Growing Franchise, Best Franchises for Any Budget and Best of the Best accolades.

The brand continues to build a strong reputation among its customers and has plans to target areas across the country such as Nebraska, Colorado, and Illinois.
With an initial franchise fee of $30,000, Mosquito Joe has gone to market with one of the lowest franchise fees in the industry and continues to entice business-savvy entrepreneurs looking to enter a growing, high-gross margin industry. In 2018, Mosquito Joe was ranked as a Top Low Cost Franchise by Franchise Business Review.
With increasing mosquito populations and insect-borne illnesses, Mosquito Joe's expansion proves that it provides a vital service to communities and a premier business option for future franchisees. In addition, the demand for mosquito control solutions is also expected to rise as more people discover the lifestyle and benefits of an itch-free yard, paving the way for greater national expansion of the brand.
