The Scoop on Our Partners Meet the Mosquito-Fighting Team Making Summer Safer for Kids and Pets

When summer hits, you should enjoy the sunshine with your family and pets, but the sting of bugs can have you running back inside. Mosquito Shield is here to help your family (and your scoopers) stay safe from bugs and reclaim your outdoor space. As fellow dog lovers and yard care pros, their mission aligns perfectly with ours, and we are proud to partner with them to bring you a special discount for being part of our community. Locally owned and operated by Jennifer and Dustin Schouten, Mosquito Shield of North Salt Lake City was born to help families enjoy their yards again. “We don’t want you to have to run inside,” Jennifer said. “We want you to be able to stay outside and enjoy your pools, saunas, firepits, or just sitting on the back porch watching the kids play without getting eaten alive.”

they treat properties every two weeks, more frequently than other companies, targeting areas where mosquitoes hide during the day and you like to spend time. They use scents like peppermint, citronella, and rosemary to create an invisible shield around your yard that repels mosquitoes and grows stronger with each application. (Fun fact: It’s just the female mosquitoes that bite while searching for the protein in our blood they need to lay eggs.) For Jennifer and Dustin, this business is personal. Their autistic son couldn’t tolerate sprays or strong-smelling repellents, so he often had to stay indoors, missing out on playtime with their dog. Since they started using Mosquito Shield at home, he no longer has to deal with those big, itchy, red, hot bites. After just one treatment, people usually see an 80% reduction in bites; after two, that jumps to 95%.

Mosquito Shield helps keep your family and pets healthy, and the spray is quick-drying, allowing your dogs and children to use the yard as quickly as 15 minutes after treatment. Ready to take back your yard? Salazar Scoops and Mosquito Shield work together to protect and beautify your space.
