There are many new “operators” showing up to capitalize on all the free press being given to the mosquito problem.

Here’s what to watch out for to become an “informed shopper”:

• Foggers offer short-term control which ends with a rainstorm or use of sprinklers. If this is understood and acceptable to you, then fogging is a good choice for you.
• Many sellers and promoters of permanent misting systems thrive on deception and false promises, especially now with all the press coverage of mosquito-borne diseases.
• Here’s what to look out for:
  • Low-ball, give-away pricing of the system, then high priced chemical refills for the on-going profit.
  • Signed contracts that lock you into poor service.
  • Poor or non-existent service after the sale.
  • Diluted chemical that’s ineffective, but highly profitable to them.
  • Never an offer in writing of “Satisfaction Guaranteed”
  • Promises of a Lifetime Guarantee. This is used to snare customers to build up a customer list to groom the company for sale.
  • Short term company existence – a sure sign that future service may not be available.
  • Unsightly installations by inexperienced installers.
