Meet The Owner of Mosquito Shield of Greater Austin
At Mosquito Shield of Greater Austin, we’re built on a simple belief: that genuinely caring about people is the foundation of a great business.
Owner Jonathan Woodrome spent 15 years as an engineer with a focus on technical service before making the leap to build something of his own. For Jon, this wasn’t just a career change, it was a chance to wake up every day running a business rooted in his core values: being authentic, staying genuinely curious, and always improving. He’ll be the first to tell you that his mission isn’t to maximize profit — it’s to improve the lives of his customers while providing a good living for his team. As he puts it, life is too short not to recognize that we’re all in this together.
Meet The Team Oscar and Jon
The heart of the day-to-day operation is our lead technician, Oscar Avendano. With over 10 years of pest control experience, including 5 years right here with Mosquito Shield — Oscar has been part of this territory since the very beginning. He knows these properties, these neighborhoods, and this community. When Oscar shows up at your door, you’re getting someone who takes real pride in his craft and genuinely loves what he does.
Together, Jon and Oscar bring something you won’t find everywhere: a team that actually listens. We service your property every 10 to 17 days, which means we get to know your yard inside and out and treat it accordingly. Every service is backed by our satisfaction guarantee — because we don’t just want to do the job, we want to do it right.
When you choose Mosquito Shield of Greater Austin, you’re not just hiring a mosquito control company. You’re choosing a team that shows up, follows through, and genuinely cares about your family’s comfort all season long.

Frequently Asked Questions
01. What other insects will
this affect?
We use a control product so other
insects present when and where we spray may be impacted.
However, our
formula was specifically engineered for mosquitoes so it won’t repel any other
insects as it does mosquitoes.
02. Will your product work
after storms?
Yes, we have specifically
engineered our formula to outlast storms. With a special polymer layer that
provides weather resistance, our formula will remain effective.
03. Is there any environment
you cannot treat?
Yes, there are some areas we
won’t spray to avoid the surrounding environments. Pools, natural water
sources, vegetable gardens, and artificial water sources complete the
list.
Because water could easily spread the insecticides, we never
directly apply our product to it. However, the rest of the property can still be
sprayed and it will drastically reduce the population of mosquitoes.
04. Does this product work on
all mosquitoes
and ticks
?
Yes, we target aspects of
mosquitoes
and ticks
that don’t change from species to species.
The
killing and repelling aspects of our product will work on any species of
mosquitoes
and ticks
.
05. What about my children and pets?
Pets and children should be inside during each application. However, they can re-enter the property once the product has dried, roughly 10-15 minutes. At that point, there are no restrictions until the next application.
06. When can I start to see the
effects?
Every yard is different but you
should notice a dramatic reduction within 24-48 hours of the initial
spray.
With each subsequent treatment, the results continue to improve,
allowing you to enjoy time outside without being chased in by swarms of
mosquitoes.
07. Why do we see more
mosquitoes after it has rained?
Mosquitoes are more abundant
after it rains because standing water is where they breed.
Adult, female
mosquitoes will lay their eggs in water. Once fully submerged, the countdown
begins and the eggs can hatch in as little as a few days.
In 2001, we pioneered residential mosquito
control and have spent the last 20 plus years perfecting it. We're so confident in the results of our mosquito and tick control services that we've backed it with our Money Back Guarantee. With us, you never have to sign a contract and we will always work to earn your trust and business. If you’re unhappy with the results after your first visit, simply notify us within 7 days and we will issue you a full refund.
