## Story

In Entrepreneur’s continuing effort to best understand and evaluate the ever-changing franchise marketplace, the company’s 46-year-old ranking formula continues to evolve as well. The editorial team researches and assesses several factors, including costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and financial strength and stability.

“Receiving recognition by Entrepreneur is a feat that most franchise platforms dream of,” said Colt Florence, senior vice president of franchise development for Five Star Franchising. “The Mosquito Shield team goes above and beyond to ensure our franchise owners have the support necessary.”

Mosquito Shield utilizes a proprietary blend of natural oils and select control products and a responsive spraying schedule based on real-time pest population analysis and weather conditions.
