Who We Are

Pest and Mosquito Marshals

Founded in 2014, Pest Marshals and Mosquito Marshals were built with a simple goal: to help customers enjoy their outdoor spaces free from mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, and other unwanted pests. What started as a mission to provide dependable mosquito control has grown into a trusted pest management brand serving communities across multiple states through our expanding franchise network.

Headquartered in Mississippi, our corporate office is home to a dedicated team that works tirelessly to support both our customers and franchise owners. From training and operations to customer care and innovation, this team helps ensure every Pest Marshals location delivers the high-quality service and protection our brand is known for.

In January 2019, Pest Marshals launched its franchise program and quickly began expanding. Today, the company includes 14 franchise locations operating across seven states, with continued growth ahead. Each franchise is locally owned and operated, combining regional expertise with the proven systems, standards, and support of the Pest Marshals brand.

Our franchisees are the true front line of defense against mosquitoes and pests for homes and businesses. They do everything in their power to protect their communities, deliver excellent customer service, and help families enjoy their backyards again.

From everyday nuisance pests to seasonal mosquito outbreaks, Pest Marshals and Mosquito Marshals provide comprehensive protection designed to keep properties comfortable, safe, and pest-free year-round.

At Pest Marshals and Mosquito Marshals, we’re proud of the team we’ve built and the communities we serve. As we continue to grow, we’re always excited to welcome more Marshals into the family. If you’re interested in joining us, you might just become the next savior of the neighborhood.
