Default Re: Lawn Service + Recommendations

We have had Scotts Lawn Service for 4 years (352-347-2822). They leave a bill at your door (unless you pay yearly to get a 5% discount). The bill includes a report on the condition of your lawn. ALL of our neighbors have had lawn problems (St. Augustine grass) and their lawns are being treated by at least 3 different lawn services. Our lawn has NEVER had a problem and is in the best shape in the neighborhood. Scotts took care of the lawn for 3 years before we were able to move to TV, so they were doing a good job even without our being here to monitor them.

Also, we use Dean's Pest control (see ad). They use beagle dogs to sniff for termites inside your house before they determine to treat the property. There was a feature article about them in a pet magazine. We've never had bugs in the house or garage, except for the Love Bugs which are uncontrollable no matter where you are.
