What Do We Do All Winter?
Tomlinson Bomberger would like to wish all of you a Happy & Safe Holiday Season!
Many of us get asked what a lawn, landscape, and pest control company does during the winter. The answer is, plenty! Most of our field personnel are unable to work during the winter months, as the cold weather isn’t very conducive to treating lawns, spraying trees, or mulching flower beds. However, there are a few crews that stay quite busy throughout the winter.
Our Pest Control Division works straight through the winter, servicing our clients on our Quarterly Pest Control Program. Winter is a hot-time for rodent activity, and the technicians also preventatively treat for other insect issues that can even arise during the late winter/early spring months.
If the winter weather isn’t too brutal, our Certified Arborists prune and remove trees throughout the winter. If you watch closely, you may see one of our trucks cruising through your neighborhood on some of the more mild days of winter.
Some of our Commercial Clients also have us perform snow removal on their properties. This emergency service utilizes our workers from across the departments here at the company, so that we can quickly respond to make our Commercial Clients’ properties safe once again.
We have over 60 vehicles in our fleet, and also lots of small equipment to help us do our jobs. Each winter, our dedicated staff in our repair shop performs maintenance and improvements on these machines to keep us up and running during the prime season.
Even our office staff stays busy throughout the winter! There is much preparation to be done for the time of March when the bulk of our workers return. During the winter months, Account Managers meet with clients to review service changes, and also meet with the occasional pro-active consumer who is looking for a change with their service provider during the upcoming season.
We have had a wonderful year here at Tomlinson Bomberger, and our clients are the reason. Thank you for making our business successful for another year. If you need anything at all, please don’t hesitate to contact us!
