Who this is for
Technicians and owners who want a simple way to document observations and explain what the customer is seeing.
A better customer explanation
Show the guide alongside your own property notes. Explain that spittlebugs are hemipterans, that local timing can vary, and that a site-specific inspection is more useful than a blanket promise.
Use the observation in your workflow
- Treatment tracking — Keep application details and follow-up notes connected to the property.
- Customer records — Keep photos, service history, and technician notes in one place.
- Service scheduling — Schedule return scouting and recurring service work without losing the thread.
