## Story

Trevor and Jackie Petrie recently opened a new territory for Mosquito Joe on May 1 to serve Northwest Minnesota. The Alexandria residents are eager to protect and educate locals on mosquito control by making the outside fun again.

“It brings me back to my childhood,” Trevor said. “We didn’t have video games, so most of our time was spent playing with our friends outdoors. Mosquitos are a prevalent problem in Northwest Minnesota with our system of lakes, so bad I think I grilled three times last spring and summer. Our goal is to provide a service that lets children and families enjoy the seasonality of Minnesota by spending time outdoors without worrying about the bites.”

The Petries will be joined by their two daughters, McKenna and McKayla in serving Douglas, Grant, Todd and Otter Tail counties.
