After capturing first place in FSB's 2007 Business Plan Competition, Green Dragon Roach Kill is ready to wage war on pests. Founder and CEO Jay Mullis, 31, says a group of Texas investors has agreed to pump $750,000 into Green Dragon if federal environmental authorities approve the product later this spring, as expected. Hoping to start production, Mullis recently rented a 3,000-square-foot manufacturing plant in Macon, Ga., and ordered raw materials - primarily boric acid - for his environmentally friendly, pet-safe roach-killing bait. Mullis says four pest-control companies have already placed orders. - Patricia B. Gray
