Before Barrier, three times a year we suffered from unwanted visits from ants. With four visits a year from Barrier the ants have disappeared. We're keeping Barrier. Brandon took the time to update us on all the available services, such as how to prevent tree sap. We will be taking advantage of that one for sure.
