FIGHT MOSQUITOES AT HOME AND IN AFRICA

What is Fight the Bite?

Orkin and its sister pest control companies are committed to protecting public health in our own backyards and around the world. Fight the Bite helps American homeowners reclaim their yards and saves lives in Africa by waging war on mosquitoes and the deadly diseases they can carry.

Fight Mosquitoes at Home

Orkin offers a unique mosquito service to help reduce mosquito populations so you can reclaim your yard. Orkin's trained technicians will inspect your yard for breeding sites, including standing water, and treat shrubbery and other shady areas where mosquitoes tend to land and rest.

Save a Life in Africa.

Through Fight the Bite 2010, Orkin and its sister pest control companies will raise and donate a minimum of $225,000 to the United Nations Foundation's Nothing But Nets campaign - a global, grassroots effort dedicated to saving lives by preventing malaria in Africa. One hundred percent of this donation will fund the purchase and distribution of more than 22,500 long-lasting, insecticide-treated mosquito bed nets in African communities, as well as education about the nets' proper use. Last year - with the help of consumers like you - Orkin raised more than $218,000 for Nothing But Nets. Help Orkin Fight the Bite and save a life in 2010!

How Can You Help Fight the Bite?

  1. Sign up for Orkin's mosquito service.

    When you sign up for mosquito service anytime in 2010, Orkin will give $10 for one mosquito net through Nothing But Nets. This contribution can literally save a life, as studies show that use of insecticide-treated bed nets can reduce malaria transmission as much as 90%.*

  2. Send a net to save a life.

    In addition to reclaiming your own yard from mosquitoes, you also can donate funds directly to Nothing But Nets to send a net and save a life for as little as $10.

  3. Spread the word.

    Tell a friend about Fight the Bite. Remind your friends and neighbors about the dangers mosquitoes pose, both here and around the world. Let them know about Orkin's Fight the Bite campaign and our efforts to wage war on mosquitoes and the deadly diseases they can carry.
