The Mosquito Shield Difference:
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.

How Mosquito Shield Works
Meet The Franchise

Owners Dustin and Vincent Defebo grew up in Pittsburgh and are now raising families and working in the area. Both owners share a passion for being outdoors whether riding bikes, hiking, skiing or playing sports. Dustin has had a 15+ year career in sales of B2B professional services. His skill set has lent itself well to developing and building territories that were previously untapped for the organization. Vince has focused much of his career in the entertainment industry, previously working in production at Paramount Pictures and now as a Vice President of Production for a specialty production firm. His background lends itself well to complex operational procedures, project management and marketing initiatives.
The two are particularly excited to share the Tick Shield program with their community. They have had friends and family members impacted by Lyme disease, and the Tick Shield product has stood out as something that will be a major benefit for people in the area. The tick population in western PA has shown a 3.5 fold increase since 2004. They are eager to be a part of businesses that has a direct human impact benefit.
The owners say, “Our goal is to bring excellent customer service to this area and industry and make people feel comfortable spending time outdoors with their families, which is a passion of ours. In addition to that our family has been affected by Lyme Disease through tick bites, the devastation this can cause is often misunderstood, it is a serious problem in western Pennsylvania and we are looking to help people avoid the perils of disease a tick or mosquito bite can cause.”
