"I reviewed Brothers Landscaping and Tree Service several years ago, but feel like it needs an updated review from me. Since my last review I have had Sebastian and crew landscape my yard. They did artificial turf with stepping stones, solid artificial turf, several retaining walls, pavers and a rock and sand hardscape feature with a garden path. He installed some french drains and I no longer have water running under my house, even with the two last wet winters we have had. He has also continued to trim my trees. Sebastian's eye for detail is superb and his workers work hard and take pride in their work. I will continue to use Brothers Landscaping for my yard."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

While organic mulch offers many benefits, it can also attract bugs looking for shelter, food, and water. Insects, rodents, snails, and slugs are often attracted to its decomposing material.

Costs depend on waste volume, service frequency, and additional options like bulk pickups.

Rocks are less likely to attract snakes and other critters because their prey (termites, ticks, and other insects) don’t usually inhabit this environment. However, if you have placed together rocks with large spaces in between or near a source of water, you may find a snake or an occasional chipmunk seeking shelter.

Mulching any time of year can attract termites, so there’s no added risk in the fall. The important thing to remember is that termites are attracted to rotting wood, so you need to lay a thin enough layer that won’t trap too much moisture and lead to rotting. A layer between 1 and 4 inches thick should provide all the benefits you’re looking for without attracting termites.

A 50-pound bag of pea gravel equals approximately one-half of a cubic foot. That amount will cover a three-square-foot area to a depth of about two inches. A three-square-foot area with equal-length sides is approximately 1.73 feet by 1.73 feet, or about 20.75 inches on each side.
