Follow watering guide and technician instructions

Mosquito treatment
- If activity is still seen after treatment was completed, retreats are not offered due to amount of time between visits
New sod
- It may take 4–6 months before any herbicides can be used, we will apply starter fertilizer only until sod is rooted

Important limitations/disclaimers after service

For mechanical aeration, top dressing, or landscape work, Purple Care is not responsible for hidden sub-surface damage
For structural pest control, regular service is exterior only unless interior service is specifically requested
Some pest issues are not covered under normal services and will need to be brought to the attention of the technician or the office.

After treatment, clients should expect that many services take time, some require follow-up visits, and results may not be immediate.
