"I highly recommend them! They were extremely polite, helpful, and professional from start to finish. I live in Florida and hired them to do the job at my parents’ home in California, so I had to handle everything over the phone. They made the entire process so easy and stress-free. My mom said they did an amazing job, and I’m very happy with the service. It’s not always easy coordinating work from another state, but they were reliable, professional, and wonderful to work with. Thank you for taking such great care of my parents’ home!"

"Just had Paul come by and install a new Rain Bird wifi sprinkler timer. What a joy to meet him. Old school nice and installed it without a problem. Big shout out to Paul from Bellflower Landscaping. Note: I had called at least three other Landscape people, and all three of them said that they could not install a WIFI sprinkler timer. Paul did it without a problem!"

"We needed someone to troubleshoot why our backyard sprinklers are not working. Esau is highly responsive and communicate. He came out, was able to troubleshoot the wiring issue, adjust the sprinkler heads to hit the right spots of the grass, set the right timer. He's also update to date with the latest app/technology if we wanted to change the current sprinkler system so that we control it from our phone. I'd highly recommend Esau/First Rate Irrigation!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Yes! Fescue grass is a perennial that naturally regrows every spring. That’s why we recommend planting this grass variety in the spring to jump into the ideal growing and regrowing schedule. Keep in mind that fescue grasses thrive in cooler and transitional areas, so some species do best in moderate climates below 90 and above 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

Depending on your lawn mower type, you can mow anywhere from 2.5 to 13 miles per hour (mph). A simple push lawn mower will take the longest to mow at 2.5 mph, which is just under the average walking pace. Riding mowers can go significantly faster. Rear engines come in at around 5 mph, tractors come in at just shy of 8 mph, and zero-turn mowers come in at the fastest speed of 13 mph.

The process to winterize your landscaping depends on the plants you have, but generally speaking, you should rake your lawn to avoid leaves from smothering your grass and leading to mold and fungi growth, wrap young trees to protect from fluctuating temperatures, and fertilize your lawn to provide some nutrients for the grass through the colder temperatures. You can also consider marking off small trees and shrubs to avoid accidentally damaging them with snow removal tools.

Ticks prefer tall grass and seek out shady and moist areas. So, in some instances a no-mow lawn may increase tick population in your yard. This scenario is not ideal if you spend lots of time in your yard or if you have pets. If you spray pesticide then this can also harm the pollinators. However, you can make a DIY tick killer with more natural ingredients to avoid using toxic chemicals.

Chiggers thrive in overgrown lawns, so regular mowing will deter these annoying mites. It may not remove every single chigger, however, so follow that up with weeding and trimming any nearby trees and bushes. Pay special attention to moist, shady spots, as these are a chigger’s preferred habitat. When all else fails, sprinkle your yard with diatomaceous earth. It kills chiggers by dehydrating their exoskeletons. Diatomaceous earth is basically ground-up shells, so there’s no risk of injury to animals.
