"quality of work is good. One issue was they tried to change agreed upon price after work was completed, however, they did honor original estimate. When reviewing my outside cameras to understand why agreed upon maintenance cost increased 100% from a few months earlier it became clear, two employees at all times were sitting in their truck while the other two were working..."

"Fidel promptly came out for an estimate. The office staff was very pleasant and we were able to schedule the work quickly, within a few weeks. The crew showed up on time and were very polite and professional. There were 4 of them, they had the right equipment, and they completed the job efficiently. Fidel came by early, while they were working, and again later, after the job was done. I asked if he could have the crew come back to take off some more branches that were hanging into a neighbor's yard, and he did not hesitate to send them back the next day to finish the job to my satisfaction. I have used Alfaro's before and look forward to using them again, they do great work and provide excellent customer service."

We take pride in delivering the best possible customer service in the pest control industry. While we are clearly in the pest control industry what we really provide is customer service. We absolutely go out of our way for our customers. I take it personally. My entire family got Lyme disease in our backyard, that’s why we started the company. Patrick Durkin got West Nile Virus and almost died. This is more than just a business for us. While we might not be perfect, we sure strive for perfection and make sure we do our best to rid yards of ticks and mosquitos.

"Professional. Dependable. Excellent value. They email us the day before they treat the yard. We choose organic treatment over regular pesticides and tick tubes. Organic is around an 1/8 more expensive, but it is reasonable when comparing other competitors’ organic treatment prices. It has been worth it for our peace of mind and the safety of our pets and backyard wildlife. Highly recommend!"

"I had a truly disappointing experience with this company, and I will never recommend them to anyone. There were several aspects of their service that were disrespectful and unprofessional. Firstly, one of the major issues was how they addressed me based on my gender/s**. Instead of using my actual name as listed on the contract, the technician referred to me as "woman" and even went so far as to call me "Queen" with sarcastic hand gestures. This behavior was not only rude but also highly inappropriate. It's evident that they lacked basic respect and sensitivity towards their customers. Furthermore, the technician, Jamal, appeared to be too relaxed and overly familiar with customers he didn't know. I engaged their services for pest control, not for socializing. I expect a professional approach when dealing with such matters. However, Jamal seemed more interested in being friendly than actually addressing the pest issue. When I requested the technician to place poison in the bathroom, which was a covered area according to the contract, I faced unnecessary resistance. It was clear from a simple Google search that rodents are commonly found in bathrooms. Yet, Jamal was hesitant and claimed it was due to concerns about my dog. However, the fact that they had already placed traps and poison in other accessible areas of my home, including the kitchen, living room, bedrooms, and basement, made this excuse seem baseless. The lack of communication and cooperation between the office and the workers was another evident problem. When I escalated the issue to the "owner" (whose actual ownership I couldn't confirm), I received no resolution or even a follow-up call. Instead of addressing the problem of an employee not fulfilling their duties, I was given an unnecessary rundown of rodent behavior. Additionally, there was a contradiction in what Jamal said he could and couldn't do. He claimed they couldn't move heavy items, but then proceeded to move the stove and refrigerator without any apparent problem. This discrepancy only added to the frustration I experienced. As a homeowner, I have every right to monitor the work being done and ask for proper coverage in areas where I've witnessed pest activity. However, Jamal seemed to push back whenever I made these reasonable requests. Overall, the lack of professionalism, disrespectful behavior, and failure to address the issue adequately left me deeply unsatisfied with their service. I hope to find a more reliable and respectful pest control company in the future."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

Treating dry soil can bring back a dormant lawn, but not a dead one. After nurturing a dry lawn back to proper moisture levels, you should closely observe whether your grass revives with the soil. If not, you may need to reseed your lawn or start fresh with new turf.

Too much clover in your lawn can indicate several issues with your soil. Clover can thrive in soils with abnormally high pH, low-cut grass, and low nitrogen. Amending these issues can push clover out for good.

Hardy perennial clover loves the low nitrogen and compact conditions that often come with poor, infertile soils. But other factors also contribute to a clover explosion, including drought conditions, cool temperatures, under fertilization, and over-irrigation. You’ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.

Powdery mildew tends to grow mostly on leafy plants. The mold itself isn’t particularly harmful, except for those who are allergic to mold. However, you should treat it like you’d treat the discovery of any other mold, and get rid of it immediately. Powdery mildew can spread to your home, which can cause expensive damage. 

A lawn that suddenly and quickly turns yellow is typically the result of a dramatic change in the grass's environment. Heavy rainfall can dilute soil nutrients, rapidly yellowing the grass, and dull lawn mower blades can dry out and damage the grass in a short time. Over-fertilizing can yellow a lawn within a matter of days. 

You can thicken new grass by using fertilizer, watering it 1 to 1½ inches per week, mowing when it is at an optimal height, and preventing weeds. You should fertilize your grass while you plant the grass seed, or soon afterward. Use an herbicide to prevent weeds or spot spray with herbicide to kill existing weeds.
