ATLANTA — MissQuito, a women-led and operated mosquito control company, announced Julie Fogg as business development manager to help drive the growth and expansion of the company.
As a veteran in the pest control industry, Fogg brings experience to find innovative and flexible ways to provide mosquito control to both residential and commercial customers, the company said.
“I am ecstatic for Julie to join our team,” said Natasha Oldham, general manager. “She is a strong addition to our team and aligns with our commitment to empower our team members to achieve their professional and personal goals.”
Fogg has over 35 years of pest control experience. In 2021, she retired from Veseris.
“I am very excited about empowering women in this industry,” said Fogg. “I have seen this industry change a lot since the 1980s, and MissQuito offers a different and invigorating challenge to advance and improve the industry.”
MissQuito offers women opportunities to grow and be entrepreneurs in the pest control industry. According to a 2019 Census Bureau study, just 4.7 percent of pest control workers are female.
“We’re building something new,” said Oldham. “As a community-focused, women-led business, not only are we creating a flexible, stress-free pest control experience, but we will also empower women to grow in the pest control industry.”
MissQuito launched in 2021 and services Cobb, Paulding and North Fulton counties and surrounding areas.
