What new service could you offer that would generate referrals and more business?
Consumers are preferring ‘green’, ‘eco’ and ‘organic’ and it’s no longer acceptable for much of the community to see chemicals being sprayed for weed control.
THE FACTS
The public is concerned about safety.
Application of chemical weed killers, according to label, requires restriction of access to treated areas for a number of hours. Failure to restrict access can expose the public to ‘probable carcinogens’.
Glyphosate negatively impacts soil biology.
The most commonly used weed killers are Glyphosate based. Glyphosate is a patented antibiotic and chelator which has been shown to kill soil microbes, bind nutrients and favour pathogens.
Weedkillers threaten habitat, ecosystem & pet health.
Most commonly used weed killers have the potential to contaminate habitats of sensitive populations of endangered species such as frogs, bees and butterflies which are essential to healthy ecosystems.
Stormwater becomes contaminated with herbicides applied to landscapes.
Chemical weed killers translocate easily from paved surfaces, through soil profiles and contaminate ground waters, streams, creeks and estuaries.
These problems have created the next great opportunity for differentiating your business and standing out from the crowd.
Residential Consumers are favouring ‘eco’, organic and bee, child and pet-friendly products.
