## Story

According to the Derry News, the Bernards have signed on to open a Mosquito Joe franchise to serve Derry and its surrounding communities. The Bernards initially spent some time searching for the brand that they felt was the best fit for their entire family.

"We said, someday we'll find a good fit for us," Kris Bernard told the Derry News.

The Bernards found that fit in Mosquito Joe, and have already begun planning out how each family member will be involved in the business operations and what responsibility they will take.

"My oldest son Matthew will be the lead technician and will do most of the spraying," Kris Bernard told the Derry News.
