What Mosquito Joe franchisees actually report earning
Median Annual Gross Sales
$287,832
Mosquito Joe's 2025 FDD, Item 19, for the 2024 Reporting Period. Basis: Franchised Businesses.
Sample size: 91 outlets. The FDD also reports average annual gross sales of $214,794. We lead with the median because an average is pulled upward by the strongest outlets; the median is the middle outlet.
What the franchisor excluded from this figure
- This Item 19 excludes data from the two company-owned businesses.
- 24 franchised businesses closed during the 2024 fiscal year, and so they did not report data to us for the entire 12-month period in 2024 (the “Reporting Period”) and therefore their data is also excluded from this Item 19.
- Part I excludes two franchised businesses that chose to not operate in 2024 and have since been terminated, and three franchised businesses that did not report data for the entire year.
- Part II excludes 23 franchised Businesses that opened during the year 2024 and therefore did not have data for the entire Reporting Period, and the same five businesses that were excluded from Part I.
This is a disclosure of what some existing outlets reported, not a projection of what a new Mosquito Joe outlet would earn. Your results will differ.
