SCHEDULING

There are many extenuating factors that affect the scheduling of all types of lawn treatments, including seasonal requirements for certain applications and current or suspected weather conditions. Therefore, the schedule outlined on the agreement is a guideline only and scheduling of treatments will be left to the discretion of Lake Norman Pest Control in the effort to achieve maximum efficacy of each lawn treatment. Lake Norman Pest Control will need access to all areas of the property being serviced during normal business hours for inspection and treatment. If the customer wishes to schedule a treatment for a specific time, it will be the responsibility of the customer to contact Lake Norman Pest Control in advance. However, it cannot be guaranteed that the service will be able to be performed at that time based on weather and other factors that affect the efficacy of lawn treatments. Scheduling appointments is a cooperative effort. If interior service and/or scheduled appointments are requested, and after due diligence to schedule, Lake Norman Pest Control is unable to schedule a service with the customer during the month due, an exterior perimeter treatment will be performed for regular treatment at regular service rates.

CANCELLATION BUY OUT OR EARLY TERMINATION

If the CUSTOMER should desire to cancel at any time, they may do so by filling out the Online Cancellation Form and agreeing to the forms conditions. A service should not be considered cancelled until the CUSTOMER has received confirmation from Lake Norman Pest Control in writing by email.  Should any service be terminated prior to the end of the initial minimum service period specified for any reason other than failure of Lake Norman Pest Control to adequately fulfill their obligations under this contract, there will be a buyout fee that will be $195 minus what the customer paid for their initial service, plus plus the immediate payment of all due balances.  If the customer paid $195 for their initial service, there will be no additional charge for terminating this agreement prior to the minimum agreement length.
