As experts in mosquito control, we discovered early on that conventional tools created an unacceptable compromise. Traditional automatic misting sprayers helped reduce the mosquito population but had an unfavorable side effect in applying considerably larger amounts of pesticides. This wasteful approach made services more expensive and forced customers to choose between potential health consequences.
Barefoot Mosquito & Pest Control revolutionized this approach to mosquito control by incorporating natural essential oils into the solution. This approach reduces the reliance of pesticides for a more affordable solution that generates effective pest control. Our unique method disrupts mosquito reproductive life cycles to decrease their presence on your property. If you are ready to work for an innovative and growing organization, please apply today
