"We had these clowns come out to deal with a mole issue we had. My wife initially met with them. I showed up when they were working out a time to treat our yard. The first guy kept telling us that we didn’t need to be present for the job but over the years we’ve learned that without being around the job rarely gets done properly. So how did he get around this, by sending a guy out to treat our yard in the dark. The second guy showed up at 610pm and at my door by 615pm. I covered what he was supposed to do, which he had a look as that wasn’t what his boss told him to do. He said he was putting down poison granules to kill grubs. I looked out my window and he was walking around my yard with a hand spreader. 15-20 mins later he was back at my door telling me he was done. I knew he didn’t do anything. With a push spreader I can’t do my front yard in 15 mins. He was supposed to do my front and back yard. After he left, I looked and nothing was on the ground anywhere. So I canceled the check. No work, no pay. I contacted them and told them I canceled the payment and why. No where in the conversation did they ask how to fix the situation or they will be out to see what wasn’t done. All they wanted was their money. They called my wife wanting their payment and sent a threatening letter about their payment. Nothing about fixing the situation. 2 days ago, they sent the guy back out for the second non-treatment with the same guy. I was looking down at the guys hand spreader and all he had in it was air. He spread air in my yard. Don’t use these idiots. All they want is your money. If you do use they insure they aren’t spraying water and spreading air. $525 down the drain and yes my wife caved and paid them. First 2 pics are front yard and second 2 are backyard. No granules."

"It seems landscapers in my area only want big jobs. J&S did not follow through. It was apparent they were not interested in the work. But that is not uncommon to landscapers here. They're location is beautiful and I love their shrubs. But when I shop there I am in my own. No offers of help etc. one time I even had to bother worker on break."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

Apply fertilizer in early spring and late summer to promote robust growth through the seasons.

In the fall, you should aerate the soil, overseed the bare spots, kill weeds, mow the lawn low, and rake your leaves. By boosting your lawn’s health in the fall, your grass will be stronger throughout the winter and come back healthier in the spring. You should also trim your perennials so that they withstand the winter and are ready for new growth in the spring. 

Very carefully. You should be cautious when using any of the above methods, as any one of them could lead to you accidentally killing desired grasses and plants. However, there are selective herbicides that can target certain plants over others. Look for a product that only affects the type of weeds you want to eliminate and spares the plants you want to keep.

Depending on the lawn treatments, the best times of the year to redo your lawn are between mid-August and mid-September for overseeding and renovation treatments. For areas such as the southern United States, lawn aeration works best during the fall, when the temperatures begin to drop. Otherwise, early spring is your next best bet because the grass is fresh and ready to absorb nutrients, and the temperature isn’t hot enough to fry the grass and the renovation materials.

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.
