SUMMERTIME LAWN MAINTENANCE

Summers half over all ready and soon the kids will be going back to school. We know owners are busy with summer fun and vacations but please remember to make arrangements for your lawns to be maintained in your absence.

Yard Maintenance standards are as follows.

Mow your lawn regularly.

Edge your driveways and sidewalks.

Trim tall weeds from around the house and pull weeds from landscape beds.

Please do not blow your grass clippings into the street. You must sweep them up after you mow.

If you use mulch or pine straw in your landscape beds it must be freshened on a regular basis. Pine straw tends to turn gray half way throught the season and generally needs to be applied twice a year.
