Your missing out on easy money :)

Sorry, I don't have "Dog sh*t removal" typed on my flyers. :laughing:

I do that enough picking up after my own dog.

And I don't mind losing a customer all because I don't want dog sh*t on my equipment. Losing $20 per week ain't gonna kill me.

What pisses me off is when my mower hits dog chit in my yard and I do not have a dog.
The dog owner spends a lot of money trying to keep his grass green.
When he keeps his dog out of my yard I will stop putting grass killer in his yard.

I tell them there's $50 service fee attached for mowing over any poop at all or keep it cleaned up before I come.

Mow over it
Easier said than done. No... just no ;)
Yes. I love cleaning my mowing deck when it also has dog sh*t on it. My favorite!!!
Not to mention your trailer, truck, boots, and...you. Grass, dust, mud no problem. Dog ****... no :frown:

Exactly... you're providing an extras service there if you think about it. There's actually pooper scooper service companies here. And they must get paid pretty well or they wouldn't be doing it ;)

I really do mow over it. It sometimes gets stuck on my work boots, deck, brake pedal, and probably elsewhere. I don't really care. Sometimes it leaves a brown line on the grass. Good fert.

There is this appartment building that I mow and beside there is a run down house with a crappy weed patch. The dog doesn't poop there put he dumps one hell of a load on the nice grass that I have to mow. I've never seen something so big!!! I hate it!
