I keep calling to talk to a manger and they will not let me, only a supervisor Jack who knows nothing. I have had 3 other companies come out and look at my lawn and all 3 have said the same thing, Bates has ruined my lawn. No one will help me or get me to the owner. When I first bought my house they sent me a brand new employee who knew nothing at all, I had him for a few months until I complained and they took him off my route. Then the bugs, they can spray and spray and the bugs come right back. I have paid for the year and I am out the money now. I will post photos tomorrow of what they have done, DO NOT HIRE them! BAD NEWS. They will take your money and won't help you out. Very sad way to do business and especially in The Villages, BAD NEWS ALWAYS TRAVELS FAST!!!!!!!!

I would suggest you call Massey and ask for a lawn expert to come out and take a look at what you have and see if they have any suggestions. DO NOT PAY ANYONE before you know what they are suggesting and before they give you a good idea of what the other company has done. I had several lawn companies before settling on Massey. My husband hates getting their bills several times a year, but my lawn and my yard looks great and I do not have bugs!
