‍

PERFORMANCE BY PERFECTION PEST AND LAWN CONTROL – Our programs are designed to manage and not eradicate weeds, insects, mites, disease and deer browsing, depending on your program’s specifications. Horticulturally tolerable levels of insects, mites, disease and deer browse may still be present after treatments. Epidemic infestations may require additional visits at additional cost to you, pending your approval.

Remeasurement of your lawn or plant material may also be required if there is a discrepancy between the original estimate and the actual square footage or product(s) required. You will be notified of any price adjustments for future services.

‍

Applications and/or treatments will be performed at the job site unannounced unless otherwise noted herein. The Datasheet, where applicable, provides approximate and alternate dates of our service. Thrive shall not be liable for damage or losses due to delays for weather or causes beyond our control, or for failure to observe precaution notices. By accepting this Agreement and engaging our services, you accept that every day during the Agreement’s term is a day on which applications may be applied, and you are continuously on notice that Perfection Pest and Lawn Control will perform applications on any day during the term of this Agreement if any other day becomes unnecessary or infeasible for performance (due to weather, scheduling conflicts, or weed, insect, mite and disease cycles) in which case you waive Perfection Pest and Lawn Control’s performance on such a day. Absent extraordinary circumstances, you request that Perfection Pest and Lawn Control not further contact you concerning dates of application as such further contact would be a burden to you.
