TruGreen Lawn Care

Negative 10 Stars* Oh just wait for the grand finale of this review! I asked them to only come on Monday's especially for the 1st visit so my husband and I could ask our questions and have a consultation. They came on the Friday before instead without a call or text. I came home to papers they left on my door, so I called and asked what services they did on my lawn. The lady I spoke to said they treated my front lawn for weeds. They were only supposed to treat my backyard btw. Later in the day I realize they stuck one of their TruGreen flag things in my backyard. I thought okay great, they treated the backyard. EXCEPT they sprayed while my puppy was back there AND they didn't close the side gate so my dog RAN AWAY! I'm grateful some kids in the neighborhood found her and knew where she lived and put her back in my yard. But I'm very upset with every aspect of their service. 10 out of 10 I do not recommend TruGreen. There response was a poor I'm sorry and tried to convince me to keep my account with them. Yeah, absolutely not.

I paid a lot of money for this service and I'm not impressed. After a really bad weed spring the treatment didn't seem to kill any weeds. I got online a few weeks later to request another treatment (part of their plan) and no one ever showed up on the scheduled day so I ended up buying my own weed spray and doing it myself. A mosquito treatment was scheduled for a certain day but no time. The guy showed up at like 6:30 am. I don't get up that early so he just left. The fertilizer seems to be ok. I won't be using them next year and after this review (3 texts begging for a review, another bummer) I'm not expecting anything good for my future treatments which include a de-thatching and over seeding, which I really need. So truGreen...be careful what you beg for. One text would be plenty but three got you this one star review, zero wasn't an option.

I just have to assume that they did a good job - it seems that everyone that comes to do an application is here less than 5 minutes - I am hoping for the high cost that I am paying - that he did a thorough job. One complaint that I have is that while applying the insect application for trees and shrubs they coated my outside windows - I am thinking that this is going to be difficult to get off my windows. On another note - every year I call and talk to the guys making the application about crab grass in my lawn - I am always assured that what they are applying to the lawn will eliminate the crab grass - it has not made a dent in all the crab grass in my lawn - in areas of my yard I have a lot more crab grass than lawn - I would like to know what you could do the get rid of this noxious weed?
