"Great. They arrived at my home early, went right to work, checked that all watering zones are operational, advised on the seasonal dormant plants in yard, completed the job, and advised on the watering system settings. Reasonably priced as well!"
"Alex is a wonderful young man and extremely trust worthy. That made all the difference in my section to hire him. He keeps me informed of the work he is doing each visit. He discusses in advance any suggestions he has and makes sure it is approved before he moves forward. He is now helping maintain my yards on a monthly basis. He does full yard services for me, from weed control and removal, to bush/hedge trimming, and eventually will be helping with keeping the gutters clean. I have even paid in and ace before the work had been done and was never concerned that Alex would not complete the work. Alex had always kept his word. He is very communicative, if he is unable to make our originally scheduled date. I am very happy and appreciative for all he does for us. You cannot go wrong hiring him to help you too!"
"The crew came in and build a 100’ interlocking wall/dirt control. It was tough work but it turned out beautifully. Super sturdy and completely level. Super impressive. I attended to upload a picture but got a pop up saying the file was too large- it’s just a pic!!!!!! Highly recommend for any and all projects"
"Mike Settle was great at listening to what I needed to be done. He was very knowledgeable about my tree problems and saved a few that I thought were gone. He was very thorough in dealing with the long overdue yard cleanup and shrub trimming leaving me with a pristine yard. When we ran into irrigation problems he had great solutions and quickly got the trench work done with new pipe and lines in before the heat impacted my plants. He was always thoughtful, knowledgeable, honest and kind in all his dealings with me and also very responsive to texts or phone calls."
It’s unlikely your leaves are a hazard, especially if you get to them while they’re dry. However, a couple of rare risks exist. University studies suggest that decaying leaves can produce organochlorines, toxic pollutants similar to man-made PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), so avoid keeping them in an enclosed area.
Also, leaves and compost may cause the growth of fungi that can cause diseases like histoplasmosis and aspergillosis, as well as mold spores that are unhealthy for human lungs. Again, severe issues are rare, but those with compromised immune systems or allergies to mold should wear face masks when directly handling leaves.
It typically takes six to 12 months for leaves to decompose entirely. The process involves the mulch composting into your lawn to deliver nutrients that facilitate grass growth. The recommended process is to spread a thick layer of leaf mulch over your garden and let it marinate for a few seasons for best long-term results.
Branches, leaves, grass clippings, and landscaping debris are typically collected.
The easiest way to remove bushes is first to cut the bush down. You may need to use a handsaw, pruning shears, or a chainsaw for thicker branches. Once you’ve removed most of the branches, you can then cut the base of the shrub as low to the ground as you can get. Then, with a shovel, dig around until you expose the roots. Dig out the roots, being careful not to leave any roots in the soil.
Armadillos are attracted to water, so a leaky irrigation system or an overwatered lawn can encourage them to move in. They especially like wet areas where they can burrow and loose soil where they can dig for grubs. They are also attracted to dense ground cover, where they can often find food sources.
