"We signed a contract with Terminix on 4/10/2024 for the exclusion and pest control services for total amount of $5618.05. The inspector was explaining us how they will do about 70 things on our house to exterminate and protect our house from mice, bats and all kinds of insects. After we signed a contract, the Terminix technician came to our property for 30 min, sprayed chemicals around the house, got on a roof, supposedly installed ridge vent guards and patched cracks on a roof. Then he left and send us a paper that the exclusion work is now complete! I was trying to get them back to finish all the promised work, or cancel the contract, but customer service kept telling me that the local manager will contact me within 24 hours and no one ever contacted me. Then we asked two local pest control companies for the inspection on our house and they both told us that the ridge vent guards are not installed properly, they done about 30% of work on the ridge guards, and only half of the cracks on a roof are patched. And the patches that they did already falling out. When I called the customer service they only told me that they will give my message to the local manager and he will contact me back. Of course, no one ever contacted me back. They refusing to terminate my contract and refund the charges, though they proved that they incapable to do this work. We still have mice, bats, ants and spiders, and lost our money. The customer service is very rude, they simply hang up on me when I asked to transfer me to her manager. The technician that came to our house looked like he was under the influence of some substance, I did not feel safe around him. He, literally, walked through me, not answering my greetings. IT IS A FRADULENT COMPANY! I will report them to attorney general, but unable to get my money back, or time, or get the compensation for the stress I had to go through."

"Treeium has been a complete nightmare since my 2 bathroom renovation started. I am still dealing with their issues 6 months after my two-bathroom renovation was SUPPOSED to be completed. I had countless issues with each phase of the project and had to consult multiple contractors not affiliated with Treeium to remedy each issue. The final issue I dealt with was a plumbing leak in both bathrooms after the expensive tile had already been laid. In short, their plumbers installed each bathroom ring too low. I had to document their errors and take photos of the problems with each bathroom and toilet. They sent plumbers out on three different occasions and were not able to fix their errors. As a result of their contractor's incompetence, I had to consult my own plumber to fix Treeium's mistakes that were made. These fixes cost $2900. Their CEO, Moty Ginsburg/and Office Manager, Abril Platas approved the reimbursement for the costs I incurred, however, they never paid the $2900. Their Project Manager, Joseph Avishay could not provide any updates and apologized for their lack of ability to conduct good business. I have been told countless excuses as to why I was not reimbursed, such as "their accounting team is overseas", "their CEO is out of town," "Their CEO is in charge of accounting and is out of town".... the list goes on. If anyone would like to see the email chain and photos of their mistakes I would be happy to share them with you. PLEASE do yourself a favor and run as fast as possible away from this horrible company if you're thinking about contracting with them, they are bad business. Period."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

They regularly monitor health, applying preventative fungicides and providing customized care to reduce disease risks.

Putting too much lime on your lawn can change the soil's pH level from acidic to alkaline. While grass doesn't do well in acidic soils, an alkaline situation can be just as detrimental to its health. Alkaline soil blocks the grass's ability to absorb vital nutrients necessary for survival. If you apply too much lime, you can reverse the effects over a relatively short time by applying commercially available products designed for the purpose or by adding compost to the soil.

You don't want to over-fertilize your lawn because it can burn the grass and even kill it. Healthy soil usually requires two fertilization applications a year during the height of the growing season. This fertilization schedule typically starts at the start of fall and the end of spring, depending on the grass type and plants.

Custom fertilization considers grass type, soil condition, and climate, optimizing growth and reducing pests or diseases while improving overall landscape aesthetics.

Fertilizing is optional after dethatching. However, the period immediately after dethatching is generally considered the best time to fertilize your lawn because the thick debris is now gone. As a result, applying water and fertilizer as the final steps of dethatching can help to spur incredible growth.
