With confirmed cases of West Nile and the Zika virus in cities across the country, fears about mosquito-borne illnesses have been on the minds of many and fighting off unwanted pests has never been more important.

<a href="http://mosquitojoefranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=mosquito-joe-targets-mississippi-for-development-as-concerns-surrounding-mosquito-borne-illnesses-rise-across-the-state-6623" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Mosquito Joe</a>, a leading mosquito control treatment company, has played an instrumental role in addressing those concerns in the communities it calls home. And now, the brand is hoping to bring its unrivaled services to a new state: Mississippi. With 23 cases of Zika&mdash;all of which are travel related&mdash; and 26 cases of the West Nile virus reported to the state&rsquo;s Department of Health this year alone, it&rsquo;s clear that there&rsquo;s a real demand for effective mosquito control in the area.

&ldquo;We aren&rsquo;t experts in mosquito-borne illnesses, and we can&rsquo;t solve the problems that Zika and West Nile bring to the table, but there&rsquo;s no doubt that Mosquito Joe is an industry expert when it comes to mosquito control,&rdquo; said Brian Garrison, Mosquito Joe&rsquo;s chief operating officer. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s why Mississippi is an ideal development market for us. Not only do we have the opportunity to establish a successful business with strong growth potential for a local franchisee and their employees&mdash;we also have the ability to improve residents&rsquo; lives in the state.&rdquo;

Mosquito Joe&rsquo;s expansion into Mississippi comes as the brand is experiencing a record breaking year. <a href="http://mosquitojoe.1851franchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=mosquito-joe-targets-mississippi-for-development-as-concerns-surrounding-mosquito-borne-illnesses-rise-across-the-state-6623" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Mosquito Joe</a> ended its second quarter with a 144 percent increase in system-wide revenue from 2015. The brand also earned a coveted spot on the &ldquo;Inc. 500&rdquo; list, ranking as the 128th fastest growing company.

&ldquo;There&rsquo;s no doubt that this is an exciting time to be a part of Mosquito Joe&rsquo;s franchise system. We&rsquo;re experiencing tremendous growth and success where our doors are open for business,&rdquo; said Kevin Wilson, Mosquito Joe&rsquo;s CEO. &ldquo;Mississippi is a natural next step for us as we continue to expand our reach. The door is wide open for franchisees to develop and own the market.&rdquo;

Beyond the brand&rsquo;s proven business model and superior services, franchisees that enter Mosquito Joe&rsquo;s ever-growing system now have an automatic competitive advantage. By inking a franchise agreement deal in the fall, new local owners have plenty of time to train and learn the ins and outs of the pest control industry before launching in the spring at the start of mosquito season. Franchisees who sign on board now to open their own Mosquito Joe location also have the opportunity to attend the brand&rsquo;s annual franchisee convention to build a network with other experienced owners before officially opening their doors for business. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&ldquo;This is the best time of year for franchisees looking to break into the mosquito control industry with us. They can learn the ropes and get their name out there before our busy season kicks into high gear in the spring and summer,&rdquo; said Angela Paules, VP of marketing for Mosquito Joe. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re excited to bring new franchisees into our system across Mississippi and work with them to successfully get their businesses of the ground.&quot;
