How does that work? Is it fixed or flexible?

Have you ever been checked for sleep apnea? That can cause snoring and a restless sleep. Of course the fix is wearing a jet-fighter face mask but it works.

Looking to add weed spraying to my landscaping business.  Looking for feedback from others who have had this done.  What do companies like Weedman charge?   I realize house sizes are different.  But just an average helps.  Thanks

It's flexible. 

I just went for a sleep study Tues., so I'll find out if I have apnea.  IQ says no. 

And the fix for severe apnea is indeed a mask.  For less severe apnea, a device like I showed cures 91% (though properly custom fitted).  If you want to see those devices, visit SomnoMed website.  That's what I'll be using...though I'm undecided which one. It's also preferred for people who travel or are out of the house (camping, etc).  No cumbersome device to carry or plug in.

If I had to do it over again on the cheap side, I'd buy this device.  It molds to your teeth and you can customize in 1mm increments the jaw adjustment

Will you also be able to spray for bugs?  Might as well add that too.  It's a big thing around here for people who live near the water.

I periodically get lawn spraying/bug spraying flyer in the mail.  I'll post prices the next time I get one.

Me personally, I just get fertilizing/weed killing, with bug spraying if needed.  I'm in NB, so it's not likely  useful, but I will find my bills if you think it will be of some value.

Thanks for the offer.  I just checked with a few clients.  $50 an application is the average.  So I will charge $30.  See how many of Weedmans clients I can take.

It's all about marketing.  ;D

Interesting story.  When the Concorde was relatively new, they were losing money.  So they did a poll of the business people who used the service (and not the people booking the flights).  When they asked the people how much they thought their ticket cost, they said "$8000?"  Turns out Concorde was charging $3500.  So they immediately changed their prices inline to what people thought it cost....BOOM.  Instantly profitable.
