HOW MUCH DOES OPENING A MOSQUITO SQUAD FRANCHISE COST?

The upside of opening a Mosquito Squad is significant. Luckily, the investment required to do so isn’t! Mosquito Squad not only helps take the sting out of the insects, but the initial franchise investment as well. The initial investment of $164,530 – $217,125* will be needed for necessities such as training, initial inventory, tools, equipment and launch marketing, in addition to the franchise fee.

WE MAKE STARTING A BUSINESS AS SIMPLE AS WE MAKE MOSQUITO CONTROL

Our franchisees enjoy the benefits of owning a business that doesn’t have the operational costs associated with many brick-and-mortar franchises. Notably, you can start your new business from your home and expand to an office when you decide it’s needed! Our franchise operations team is always ready to train, support, and provide the tools our franchisees need for success.

Many first-time franchise owners turn to financing to make opening their new business’s upfront costs more manageable. Types of financing our franchisees have used include SBA loans, home equity loans, and retirement funds. Opening a new business is an important decision, and many new owners enjoy the financial relief offered by financing. It can also be a smart business decision—paying a portion of the investment, including the franchise fee and financing the rest, is a great way to allow extra capital for the operational costs of your new business. We’re ready to work with you when you’re ready to launch your Mosquito Squad franchise.
