The service has never been rendered and no previous contract for this service has been awarded. 4) Can you clarify what we will be spraying? Spraying for weeds. 5) Are you requesting a weed killer applied once only per season or spraying once a year for pests (ants)? Should be once a year for a general weed spraying in February to include pre-emergent treatment and then as needed for post emergent weeds. Insecticide should be applied quarterly (October, January, April, July) around the perimeter of the building. And treat other pests as needed such as fire ant mounds. 6) Can you provide a map of the location, and do you have the amount of acres that needs to be cut.

Using Google Maps I have calculated that the entire property is approximately 1.86 acres, if you take out the parking lot, there is approximately 1.21 acres of lawn and building. Taking out the building leaves about 0.9 acres of lawn and flower beds that will require attention. Please note that these figures are calculated using Google Maps. 10) I would like to know the total acres that will be serviced by my company if we get this contract. Using Google Maps I have calculated that the entire property is approximately 1.86 acres, if you take out the parking lot, there is approximately 1.21 acres of lawn and building.

Please note that these figures are calculated using Google Maps. 11) It appears that there is a vacant lot attached to this property.

Bushes should be trimmed as needed on a regular basis. 14) How many services are expected during the months of October - February?
