Mike Gast Lawn Care & Chameleon Pest Control
“Tumble outta bed, and stumble to the kitchen. Pour myself a cup of ambition, yawnin’ and stretchin’ and try to come to life. Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin’. Out on the streets, the traffic starts jumpin’ with folks like me on the job from 9 to 5.” Boy, Dolly Parton really had it right when she sang those iconic lyrics to the working person’s song, “9 to 5.” We spend so many hours a week at work, providing for our families, impressing our bosses and hoping our clients know how hard much we do for them. On the weekends, you just want to relax, have some quality time with the family and forget about the Monday through Friday grind. The last items we want to spend our precious free time on are chores. We all know that certain projects have to get done, lest the house fall apart or your spouse complains, but is there a way to efficiently tackle as many of these mundane tasks at once without breaking your time bank? One local businessman has made it his mission to make sure your weekends belong to you again.
For Mike Gast, owner of both Mike Gast Lawn Care, Inc. and Chameleon Pest Control, taking the weight off of the shoulders of people who should be relaxing on a Saturday is his mission. His companies are a natural accompaniment to each other and really provide total outside and inside protection against pesky bugs and other winged critters. Nothing says “weekend” than coming home to a freshly mowed lawn, with neatly trimmed hedges and beautifully pruned flowers. Then, you step inside and have total confidence and satisfaction that you have provided a defense against a variety of pests, providing a safe and healthy environment for your family. From there, relaxation ensues.
At Mike Gast Lawn Care, Inc., your yard woes become theirs so you can catch your tee time, or, see what you can catch at the end of your fishing pole. From landscape design, maintenance, fertilization, irrigation and spraying, they leave no weed untouched. Now that will make working 9 to 5 much easier! It is likely you have seen their fleet of trucks around town making the lawns in Lakewood Ranch, Bradenton, Downtown Sarasota, Palmer Ranch and everywhere in-between true showstoppers. Their seasoned technicians are capable of handling all of your tree or weed worries and will make everything look fairytale perfect for your special party or occasion.
Chameleon Pest Control pulls the rug right out from under those pesky bugs you have been seeing in and around your home or business. Nothing makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck more than seeing a cockroach scurry across the floor. Can you imagine if your clients or friends were to see that? The time to tackle those issues is before an infestation occurs in your dwelling. Call Mike Gast and the friendly folks at Chameleon Pest Control to set up a consultation and monthly visits to keep the creepy-crawlers at bay.
When you are running two companies, you look for ways to save money and stretch your budget. With organizations like IBE, Mike Gast has been able to cut costs in many areas.
