WEEDS,
INC. - specializes in Industrial Weed Control, both contract and
herbicide sales. We work throughout the southeastern, mid-atlantic
and mid-western states and are one of the largest custom applicators in
these areas. Our technical staff consists of Agronomists,
Horticulturists and Foresters with many years of practical field
experience in all areas of industrial weed control.
HERBICIDE SALES - although our primary
business is service, we do sell herbicides to those who prefer to make
their own application. In conjunction with our herbicide sales, we
supply technical help for herbicide selection and application.
There is no charge for this service. We are now distributors for
Aventis, BASF, Brewer, Control Solutions, Dow AgroSciences, Drexel,
DuPont, P.B.I. Gordon, Griffin, Milliken, Pro-Serve, Riverdale and
Monsanto Chemical companies and thus handle a broad spectrum of
sprayable and granular herbicides.
SERVICE PROGRAM - our service program is
complete in every way. We assume full responsibility for your weed
problems for the entire growing season at a firm price. Any
additional spraying which may be required during the course of the
growing season on the areas under contract would be at our expense.
There would of course, be an additional charge for any new areas added
during the course of the program.
METHOD OF HERBICIDE APPLICATION - all
herbicides are spray applied using water as a carrier. The rate of
spray can be increased or decreased according to working conditions by
changing the nozzle size and the operating pressure.
SELECTION OF HERBICIDE - since we assume
full responsibility for any damage to desirable vegetation under our
service program and guarantee our results, the selection of herbicides
is usually left to us. Herbicides are selected on the basis of
soil type and condition, the type of vegetation present, time of
chemical application and the proximity of the area to be treated to
desirable vegetation. All herbicides employed are non-corrosive,
non-flammable, and of low toxicity to mammals.
EQUIPMENT - our spray unit consists of
600 and 1000 gal. John Bean sprayers mounted on late model international
chassis. Each unit is equipped with two spray reels carrying a
total of 1000' of hose. Maintenance is performed on a regular
basis that keeps all units in top working order.
SPRAY PERSONNEL - all spray personnel
are highly trained and highly skilled in herbicide application.
Everyone must successfully complete a year's training before they are
given the responsibility of a spray unit.
INVOICING & TERMS OF PAYMENT - billing
arrangements are left to the discretion of the customer. Pro-rated
billing is not uncommon on large contracts and is often on a monthly or
quarterly basis.
INSURANCE - a certificate of insurance
showing our coverage is enclosed with our proposal. Please let us
know if you require coverage above these limits.
At your convenience, we would appreciate the
opportunity to review your past programs with you and also to review
your present requirements for both service and herbicides.
