I am not a turf expert, but if it is weeds that are making your lawn look bad (and not mole crickets or brown patch or some such thing) in addition to weed treatment, it may be helpful to have the lawn mowed at a longer height, at least for part of the year. Maybe an inch longer might make a difference. By far, the prettiest, healthiest looking home lawns I have seen here, appear to be cut that way. The shortest lawns seem to be the weediest. Do you know what is eating your shrubs? If it is something like grasshoppers, there is no seasonal treatment to deter them. Until you can get the expert's help, you can safely mix up some sudsy dish water (lemon dish soap is pretty good) and spray/squirt it on your shrubs. Bugs don't like the taste and will usually move on. (it WILL wash off in the rain, and must be reapplied) It may be a bit of a chore, but might be of help in the meantime. :) |
I have had Massey for ~ 5years now. The positive comments are that whenever I call with an issue they are there the next day. The negative is that I have to keep calling.
Our lawn guy tells me of the 175 lawns he takes care of those that use Dean's have the best lawns. He tells me Massey does the bare minimum. |

I have used Massey for almost two years. Im satisfied with the service I have received from them. They do the bugs and the grass. If I need any kind of lawn sprinkler work ,I use the company that installed them. I think they also give discounts if you sign up for the first time.

Massey
Didn't know Massey mowed lawns !!!

Had Massey for five years. We did everything this winter that they suggested but to no avail. We have (had) a ton of weeds, mole crickets and moles!!! They could not identify the mole crickets so they sent a supervisor and he could not identify either. Went with Zoysia Green and have gotten rid of the moles, working on the mole crickets and the weeds are subsiding after one treatment!

Massey is OK. I signed with them when I closed on my house a year ago. They are expensive and do like to sell you lots of services. After my episode with drywood termite swarmers (there is a separate thread on this), I'm not sure I will continue with Massey when my contract runs out. They were too quick to give me the most expensive and disruptive solution to my termite problem. I had to do extensive research myself, and solved the problem. (see my separate thread). After a year here, I think there is a lot of pest control the homeowner can do him/herself.

Massey
great for termite and pest control. Not happy with the yard. spending a lot of money, and the tech says I have drought conditions. I has rained daily for the last 45 days! Plus if I think it's dry at all I run my sprinklers for an hour a zone.

We had them a few months and fired them last week. They scalped the yard, ignored problem areas that were pointed out to them 3 times, charged for pulling weeds from flower beds that they never touched. Also cut (or should I say ripped) the grass right after a heavy rain! Would not recommend them.
