How Our Mosquito Hero Service Works

Customer Testimonials

"We've been using the mosquito hero summer program this season since June and have had 2 applications so far seeing a HUGE difference in mosquitoes on our 10acre property in southern Ontario. We can FINALLY enjoy having company come over and spend time outside at ANY time of day without the fear of being forced to wait inside for the mozzies to go away (which often never do!). The customer service has also been great when we inquired about the "guarantee" and needed a reapplication because some areas were missed. The person who has come to our place both times has always been so professionally dressed, polite and courteous and we've enjoyed chatting with him."
