VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - Mosquito Joe, a Neighborly company, has earned the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program's (PESP) Gold Level designation. This recognition highlights Mosquito Joe's sustainable pest management practices, including outside pest management services, that reduce pesticide risk to human health and the environment, the company said.
PESP is a voluntary program that encourages companies to minimize the risks from pesticide use while implementing innovative technologies and practices. The Gold Level designation is awarded to organizations that demonstrate a commitment to reducing pesticide risks, setting them apart as models for other PESP members.
As a Gold Level PESP Member, Mosquito Joe has taken significant steps to promote Integrated Pest Management (IPM) services. IPM is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices and sustainable pest control methods. Mosquito Joe protects the home and property from the outside, reducing pesticide risk inside.
"We are incredibly honored to receive the EPA's PESP Gold Level designation," said Lou Schager, president of Mosquito Joe, a Neighborly company. "This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to prioritizing the health and safety of our customers and communities by utilizing environmentally responsible practices. Through our partnership with the EPA, we aim to set a new standard in pest control that protects both people and the environment."
Founded in 2010, Mosquito Joe has more than 400 locations across the U.S., working with pollinator protection through its work with the EPA and Mosquito Joe's Pollinator Protection Management Program.
