The Premier Recurring Revenue Model in Pest Control
The Recurring Revenue Opportunity
Mosquito Shield is designed for operational leaders and business builders who value data-driven growth and customer retention. The model is built on three distinct revenue streams—Mosquito, Tick, and Perimeter Pest Control—allowing owners to maximize the value of every customer. By combining effective proprietary treatments with intelligent routing, owners create satisfied customers who renew year after year. With a centralized National Sales Center handling inbound leads, owners can focus on optimizing routes and managing their technician teams rather than being tied to the phone.
