Very friendly, courteous and understanding.
Your product works like spraying water, it doesn’t repel anything. Your employees don’t show up half the time. You should invest in Zevo over the counter bug spray and maybe your service will be worth the money I’m paying you.
Very professional , cordial and friendly. Ernest is very friendly and respectful, does a good job.
