I just got the word today that the company I hired to spray my crabapples and hawthorn hired a guy who flaked out and didnt spray certain properties when he said he did. They say they only missed the last treatment out of three, but my trees are already showing yellow leaves and the brown spots.
I'm pissed, obviously as this was a wet year and I setup spraying early because its a mess when this happens, plus its bad for these trees. So two things I'd like comments on....
1) Care of Trees told me they can spray anytime during the year. Will this work after the problem has started?
2) The other guys want me to pay for the two treatments, I have not and I'm thinking of not paying them. I hate to do this because they are nice people and they typically do all of my tree trimming etc, but I can't see throwing the money away if they didnt do the job properly.
