At Mosquito Joe®, we protect our customers from itchy bites and the diseases biting insects can transmit. We’re all about making the outdoors fun again for your family and pets. But while we’re battling pests on your behalf, we’re equally committed to protecting the environment. That’s why, since 2019, we’ve partnered with the Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program (PESP), a forward-thinking initiative established by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Therefore, we’re thrilled to announce that Mosquito Joe has achieved Gold Status within this program, a prestigious recognition reserved for “outstanding environmental stewards.

What is EPA’s Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program?


pesp disclaimer

Pesticide Environmental Stewardship is a voluntary initiative developed by the EPA to encourage businesses to adopt more sustainable and environmentally friendly pest control practices. The program promotes developing and using innovative pest control practices to target dangerous pests while working to protect pollinators and the ecosystem. Members like Mosquito Joe are committed to creating comprehensive Integrated Pest Management (IPM) plans that combine habitat maintenance, pest prevention, and population reduction to minimize pesticide use while maintaining effective results.

Joining the Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program was a natural fit for Mosquito Joe. Our urban entomologists — our very own bug scientists — have always been passionate about protecting our pollinators and developing effective, eco-friendly pest control solutions. Achieving Gold Member status within this program allows us to lead by example, encouraging other companies to create long-term strategies that minimize their own environmental impact.

A Commitment to Environmental Stewardship

Mosquito Joe earned the coveted Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Gold Member status through a tireless effort and continued commitment to creating sustainable pest control solutions that take into consideration the environmental impact. Partnering with manufacturer scientists and entomologists nationwide, we constantly seek out new, more effective ways to eliminate pests through environmentally sensitive solutions. We also work directly with homeowners, offering customized, actionable plans that make their property less inviting to harmful pests.

By continually monitoring pest activity and adapting our treatments based on environmental data, we minimize the broader environmental impact to the community, and your property, while targeting the pests that present the greatest threat to humans and pets. Our team remains committed to developing innovative, eco-friendly solutions that set the gold standard for environmentally responsible pest control.
