TL;DR
Mosquito Joe, a new franchise, has opened in Pennsylvania, aiming to provide a service that addresses a specific need in the local community. The owners, Joanna and Jeff Patterson, will give back to the community during National Mosquito Control Awareness Week.
Joanna Patterson and her husband Jeff recently opened the first Mosquito Joe in the state of Pennsylvania. The native Pittsburgh couple realized a need for the service after a family friend contracted Lyme disease.“It’s a new concept for our area, but it’s something people in Pittsburgh could really use because our summers here are so short,” Patterson told Beaver County Times Online.
The couple will also celebrate their opening by giving back to the community during National Mosquito Control Awareness Week.“We want to enjoy every minute we can of nice weather and doing so without the nuisance of mosquito and tick bites," Patterson said. Patterson and her crew are looking forward to serving residential and commercial properties across the community to help protect more residents against mosquitoes and ticks.
