On a warm summer afternoon, Mosquito Guard's owner hosted a backyard gathering to celebrate the birthday of one of his young daughters, but the event was overshadowed by the tiniest of party crashers: hungry swarms of mosquitoes. The days following were filled with the rustling sounds of scratching and the gurgle of calamine lotion, which prompted him to investigate solutions to pest invasion, and Mosquito Guard was born.

The technicians will mists the yard with a solution reproduced from the African chrysanthemum flower that settles onto surrounding vegetation. As mosquitoes descend upon the greenery, the solution kills them, allowing lawn parties to continue comfortably as long as guests believe your unorthodox croquet rules. The EPA-approved solution, which lasts for up to three weeks, is safe to use in areas of food preparation and targets only the insects that bite humans, sparing innocuous insects such as ladybugs, honeybees, and butterflies. Services are backed by a satisfaction guarantee, and the company also supports several charities.
