TrueBlue Insect Protection

TrueBlue Insect Protection — operating under TrueBlue Services, LLC — is a Shrewsbury-based pest company that Cynthia Rose and partner Jaime Loach have run since 2019, running a March-to-November preventative program against ticks, mosquitoes, and crawling insects with botanical, plant-based treatments the company says meet the EPA's 25(b) minimum-risk standard; per-treatment pricing runs from $65 to $114. BBB records a Massachusetts Department of Agriculture pesticide license (#AL-0051078) for the company. The review record is unusually consistent for a service business: 29 Google reviews from 2024 through this year, every one of them 5 stars, and the same story repeats across almost all of them — yards that used to be unusable because of ticks and mosquitoes becoming places families and pets can actually spend time in. One customer said she can finally sit on her back patio four evenings a week without being bothered; another, who lives in a swampy area, said mosquitoes are a thing of the past after years of losing that battle with other companies. Several reviewers with dogs specifically mention no more ticks on their pets after starting treatment. Reliability and communication come up almost as often as effectiveness: reviewers describe getting notice a day or two before a technician arrives, prompt rescheduling around bad weather, and a technician named Jeff who is mentioned by name in multiple reviews as friendly, efficient, and easy to work with. A handful of customers describe being in their third or fourth season with TrueBlue and say they would not switch — one specifically called out the front office staff and yard technicians as consistently professional. There is nothing negative on the record to weigh against this — every review quoted, going back to 2024, is positive. For tick, mosquito, or general yard pest prevention around Shrewsbury and the surrounding area, this is a small, owner-run operation with an unusually deep and consistently strong review history.
