We have been getting Pest Control and Weed Control every 2 months. It's like $115 each time. I'm wondering if this is how most people time this service or if it's OK to do it less frequently.
Any ideas about this subject are welcome.
Thanks!

Been using the Spectricide ready to use for 18 years now. Use inside, like under sink, ONLY once or twice a year. Use on ALL walls of garage, and around the foundation, lanai, and across threshold of front and back doors twice a year. Cost is LESS than $40 a year, have never once had any insect pests inside our home. For lawn weed control, we use the premixed bottles that simply attach to your hose. We rotate three different brands so they stay effective, Spectricide one season, Bayer the next, etc. etc. The hose attach bottles cost from $12 to $17 depending on brand, and take from 5-8 minutes of time (NO mess, nothing to mix) to walk around your home and apply. We've used about twice a year, UNLESS we see some weeds popping up, so we then do a "between" application to that area only.
ROTATION of brands (was recommended to us by U. of F. ag advisor to rotate brands so weeds and pests do NOT become immune to a certain formula) has proven to be a very wise decision.
