Mosquito Control Services in Central Pennsylvania: Mosquito Shield of Central PA

Why Mosquito Shield?

Best Value

All mosquito control service is not the same!

Mosquito Shield provides the best value in mosquito control services because of how we treat your yard using The Mosquito Shield Tailored Treatment System™. We don’t use a fixed schedule, identical product, “one size fits all” service program.

Better Results

You can’t control mosquitoes on a set number of sprays or visits. Unlike our competition, we service you for the season, whatever it takes to provide superior results. This promise has awarded us an industry-leading customer retention rating of 90%.

More Sprays

We actively monitor both mosquito population and weather conditions and adjust your treatments as needed. On average, we spray every 10-17 days, a proven and effective approach that has us spraying 4-6 more times than the industry average.

Our Guaranteed Protection Plan kills mosquitoes and begins the critical process of establishing a protective barrier on your property. Our proprietary Mosquito Protection Blend™ is applied around all active areas such as decks, patios, pools, swing sets, etc. We actively monitor mosquito populations and weather patterns and return to your property approximately every two weeks. Our proprietary Rain Shield™ is added for improved protection during wet weather conditions which allows the barrier to remain in effect. The protective barrier (assuming no applications are skipped), gets stronger as the season progresses.

Our Tick program is based on the same tireless work and effective science behind our mosquito control protection plan. This intensive Tick program was developed specifically to eliminate them within your property. In a process similar to that described for Mosquito Shield, our tick formula is applied to all turf, wood lines, and landscape beds around your property to effectively kill ticks within those areas.

How Mosquito Shield Works

Meet The Mosquito Shield of Central PA Franchise

At Mosquito Shield of Central PA, our goal is to provide the best residential mosquito control service with the highest levels of customer service, allowing our customers to enjoy their yards, homes and time with family to the fullest.

Owner Ben Havens lives in Carlisle PA with his wife Erin and kids 2 kids, Kendrick & Eleanor. They are active and outdoorsy people who spend most weekends camping and hiking when the weather allows. Ben currently owns and operates a design/build remodeling firm which he will maintain ownership of but reduce his time there to one to two days per week. Ben first moved to Central PA in 2008 to work with at risk youth. 13 years later he is still there but is now married and has changed his career trajectories significantly. Having already built one company in the area, he knows that he has the contacts to make a successful Mosquito Shield franchise here in Central, PA and looks forward to serving the community in a new way through effective mosquito and tick control services.

Ben was broke in college and needed to find a way to pay his rent, so along with working two jobs he started his own small ebay business in which he would purchase damaged digital cameras, repair/refurbish them, and re-sell them. Not only did this pay his rent for two years, but he got his first taste of what it meant to run a business. Ben has been doing it ever since in one capacity or another, and he’d like to think he’s come a long way. This year his high-end remodeling business is on track to do 3.5M in revenue.

One of Bens favorite local restaurants is Mt. Fuji, which has some of the best sushi he’s found anywhere! They are only 10 minutes from his house and since the pandemic set in they bring it home at least once a month. His favorite local place to visit would be The Appalachian trail, which is only a few miles from his house. They like to get the dog loaded into the van with them and head over there to hike for an hour or two whenever possible. It’s a great way to get outdoors, get exercise, and enjoy being together as a family.

When asked what attracted them to Mosquito Shield, “I was definitely attracted to the simplicity of the Mosquito Shield business model. I love the idea of picking one thing and doing it better than anyone else. This allows me to provide a mosquito control service in Central Pennsylvania with great value at a good price. I am also excited about building a large recurring customer base – in remodeling we have some repeat customers but for the most part you get one large project from a customer and then they are only a referral source from that point on. Additionally, there is almost nobody in this Central, PA area treating for mosquitos and ticks and it is desperately needed. As an avid lover of the outdoors, I see Mosquito Shield as a way to spend more time enjoying being outside with friends and family through effective residential mosquito and tick control services in Central, PA. I am also excited to be able to provide the peace of mind that comes with knowing my family is protected from ticks & mosquitoes through proper pest control.”
