As spring approaches, America's Swimming Pool Company (ASP) and Mosquito Squad have joined forces to ensure homeowners can turn to their own backyards to enjoy the outdoors amidst the pandemic. With temperatures on the rise over the next few months, backyards can become breeding grounds for mosquitoes if they're not properly maintained. Now more than ever, people are creating an escape in their own backyards and enjoying more time outside. ASP and Mosquito Squad are providing consumers with tips and best practices to protect themselves from mosquito- and water-borne illnesses, as well as offering homeowners the chance to win seasonal backyard maintenance packages through their #OperationOutdoorOasis sweepstakes.

"With continued COVID-19 concern plaguing Americans, consumers shouldn't have the added stress of worrying about mosquito-borne illnesses this spring," said Tom Swift, chief operating officer of Mosquito Squad. "Homeowners deserve a safe outdoor space to unwind and enjoy their downtime while continuing to practice social distancing."

To promote healthy living this spring, America's Swimming Pool Company and Mosquito Squad are working together to launch the #OperationOutdoorOasis sweepstakes to help transform a lucky winner's backyard to their very own private sanctuary. To enter, participants must go through the submission form on either the ASP or Mosquito Squad contest page at https://www.mosquitosquad.com/outdoor-oasis/ or https://www.asppoolco.com/outdoor-oasis/.

The contest is open for entries beginning March 8 through May 3. Once entries close, Mosquito Squad and ASP will select one winner at random and announce them on May 7. The winner will receive a full season mosquito protection package from Mosquito Squad and a complimentary pool maintenance package from ASP, both for the 2021 season.

"A pool is a luxury investment, but the amount of time allotted for upkeep is often overlooked," said Stewart Vernon, founder and COO of America's Swimming Pool Company. "Working alongside Mosquito Squad, we hope to provide homeowners with a new type of paradise just steps outside of their homes by providing tips on how to obtain a pristine pool and combat mosquitoes."
