Helping families enjoy the outdoors again
We started with a simple goal: make local backyards, patios, and lake homes comfortable enough that people actually use them all summer.
A premium local service, done right
Too many summer evenings in our area get cut short by mosquitoes, and too many cabin weekends get spent indoors avoiding ticks. We built this service to change that, with reliable recurring treatments instead of one-off bargain fogging.
We focus on Fargo-Moorhead, Detroit Lakes, and select nearby lake communities — including Red Willow Lake, Lake Ashtabula, Lake Elsie near Hankinson, and Lake Traverse. Staying local keeps our scheduling dependable, our routes efficient, and our service personal.
How we approach the work
Natural-first treatment
We treat with Essentria Mosquito & Tick, an essential-oil based formulation suited to family yards.
Seasonal service model
Recurring, scheduled treatments that keep coverage consistent through the summer, not a single spray.
Genuinely local
Owned and operated for the communities we serve, with the reliability that comes from staying focused.
Meet the founders
Fargo Mosquito Control was built by two local partners who wanted a better option for families, lake homeowners, and anyone tired of losing summer evenings to mosquitoes and ticks. The goal was simple: offer a more reliable, higher-quality seasonal service that people could actually count on.
Anthony Leal
Anthony helped start the company to give local families a service they can genuinely rely on, and he leads our Fargo-Moorhead and North Dakota lakes operation. For him the difference is in the details — consistent scheduling, careful treatment, and showing up when we say we will. Success is simple: customers who actually get to use their backyards, patios, and decks all season.
Carter Mastrud
Carter partnered to build a premium alternative to cheap, one-off fogging, and he runs our Detroit Lakes area operation — rooted right there on the lake. He focuses on a recurring seasonal approach that keeps coverage steady through the buggiest stretch of summer, and on treating every property, from lake cabins to shoreline backyards, like it matters — a better experience from the first visit to the last of the season.
