Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Bill Atwood, president of Bill's Complete Lawn Care Service in Humble, Texas. Discusses grub control services. States that "it was easier from him [Atwood] than it might be for others to add the service because in Texas, he wasn't required to obtain a special license to apply the insecticide he uses." Notes that "Atwood is considering buying a riding spreader for large estates to spread the pellets in a larger area quicker to help trim job time." States that "the crew generally makes two yearly applications - three if necessary - based on soil temperatures." Briefly mentions that "Atwood also recommends brochures as a way to attract new customers." |
