Customers frequently cite effective weed elimination, punctual arrival, and fair pricing without contract requirements or excessive upselling. Reviewers note that the provider returns to address missed spots and offers specific advice on follow-up treatments. However, two low-star reviews indicate a pattern where the service provider discontinued accounts after clients questioned chemical application during rainstorms, citing scheduling constraints as the reason for removal.

Clint is the consummate professional! He shows up when he says he’s going to, he follows up on his word, and most importantly his services work!
Clint has been servicing my yard and my lawn looks great! He told me to follow up after a few weeks with a spot treat.

Wicked Weed Control has been nothing but great! I’ve used other services that I had to constantly call to come back and treat areas that they missed, but WWC comes back out to check if he missed anything and treat on the spot without me having to do anything. Lawn is looking GREAT!! Thanks! I’ve recommended to my neighbors and they’re both using him.

Hi Darrell Futrell, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We would like to clarify a key detail: we never apply treatments during an active rainstorm. Your lawn was treated fully prior to any rain falling. In fact, many professional lawn applications actually require rainfall or watering shortly after application to work effectively.
Regarding your service, we strive to maintain clear expectations with all our clients, and when scheduling or service preferences don't align, we feel it’s best for both parties to part ways politely. We appreciate your compliment on our fair pricing and wish you the best with your lawn care in the future. Thanks Clint

Great service and knowledgeable. Helped control my weeds in my lawn and only did what needed to be done and didn’t upsell more. Inexpensive and I will take his advice for the fall fertilizer and weed control.
