TruGreen

I don't know where to turn...
Is there a place to get info on my rights as a neighbor of people who use TruGreen?
Yesterday, a very breezy day in Iowa, the TruGreen truck pulled up. One of the boys in it seemed approachable, so I suggested to him that it wasn't a very good day to spray. He inquired about what I was growing in my yard and said he'd have to ask the other guy about what they could do.
The other guy was rude and inappropriate. I did call the company and they requested the spraying stop, but it was completely done by that time.
Should I just look the other way and not worry?
Thank you.

RE: TruGreen

I'd keep after the company, if I were you. TruGreen has a national record that is not the best, sad to say.

Some years ago, I witnessed a TruGreen operator dumping his leftover spray (whatever it was) down into the street drains! Sheesh, I might have left skid marks on the street coming to a stop.

I told him to stop immediately, called the number on the side of his truck and yammered at them. I also worked my way through some regulatory offices to make a series of complaints.
