Indydealmaker, I wish there was a "like" button. As a newbie, I appreciate your post.

It seems that every time our lawn is treated, it rains. One time he continued to spray right through the storm. He said it wouldn't affect it and our lawn looks great so I guess he's right. But I still wonder, like you. :shrug:

The only stupid question is one not asked.

Come on folks... think !!!!

I was all ways told no question is a dumb question

It never is wrong to ask questions. Yes some may seem simplistic to some people. The same people may ask a question to seems simplistic to others. One can never stop learning though.
However, the good thing about Deans I have found, and some of the reputable companies is if it did not work, they will keep treating it until it is corrected. The bad thing is the repeated calls and trips to get it fixed. :) The last time I had a problem in the grass, Deans put in a follow up visit in their system to check it and keep treating it. Since it is outside, you are not inconvenienced by their visits. It's the inside ones with the 2-4 hour windows that are annoying.

Asking questions is why we have a mouth right there in the front of our face.

It was NOT a stupid question and there are a LOT of helpful people with insight who read this forum.

AND some other kind too.

Disagreed with by saying how you disagree with me is one thing. Seems on this forum, in whatever area you go, you better march with those who pat themselves on the back as such wonderful people, or you will be dismissed curtly.

In one evening I was called intolerant with no indication of any reason except for disagreeing with someones position, which I did with information, and as "non thinking" because I asked a question on a forum that I felt might offer me some experience, I find TOTV, again despite so many accolades that are given to people on here by people on here, not to be a very friendly place.

Rags, try not to be hurt. I have been badly hurt on this forum. It is the problem with anonymity. People can say anything without being stopped. There are those who post who are the direct opposite of all we hold dear. Those who will say purple if you say pink and black if you say white. I was trying to keep the peace yesterday when I was typing my little lecture on intolerance. You have a right to your views and many of us agree with them.

Nice people like you should just be glad you don't have to LIVE with people who are cold and cruel and argumentative all of the time it seems.
