Other Info: "What do you do during the winter?" is a very common question we hear. In the warmer states, mosquito season can sometimes run 11-12 months, but our business model was made in a colder climate (Chicago) where mosquito season lasts 4-5 months. With the mosquito season, the perimater pest servcing season, now combined with holiday lighting services season, our model allows for predictable annual revenues and much better opportunities for customer and employee retention.
As the day is wrapping up, a franchisee might attend a local networking event (Chamber of Commerce, BNI, etc.) where he/she will have the opportunity to engage with the local community and build more business with Mosquito Hunters.
