# Wicked Local: Mosquito Joe Opens Newest Location in Boston Suburbs

**TL;DR:** Mosquito Joe has opened its newest location in the Boston suburbs, expanding its presence in Massachusetts. The location is the third Mosquito Joe territory in the state, with two more set to open in the coming months.

## Story

Alan Scharman and his son Martin recently opened Massachusetts’ third Mosquito Joe territory this month, a brand that previously had no presence in the state before 2017. While the father and son duo are the third franchisees to open territories in Massachusetts, two more have signed on in early 2018, and should be up and running within the next few months. Soon, pest control services in the suburban Boston area and beyond will be dominated by the Mosquito Joe brand.

“I heard about Mosquito Joe because one of the customers at my shop sported the brand’s logo on their phone,” Scharman said in an interview with Wicked Local. “As it turns out, that was Kathy Samargedlis, Mosquito Joe’s first Massachusetts franchisee.”
