"Abel and his crew did a Fall cleanup of my front and back yard yesterday. They were thorough and paid attention to my requests with regard to trimming. Their pricing was competitive, but reasonable for the work being done. I canâ t wait for them to come back and maintain the lawn every two weeks! Iâ m so glad I found Santos Landscaping!"
"Had him come out and grade a storm water drainage ditch. Arrived on time, mowed the overgrowth in and around the ditch, graded the bottom so it would drain better. My yard hasn?t retained water/flooded since! Reasonably priced out of the 4 different quotes I got for this work."
"I had a great experience! He did an excellent job cutting my grass and made my yard look so much better. He was professional, paid attention to detail, and made sure everything was cleaned up before he left. The mowing, edging, and weed eating were all done with care, and you can tell he takes pride in his work. His pricing was fair, and the quality of work exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for someone reliable who does quality lawn care, I would definitely recommend him. I’ll be using his services again!"
"Ryan showed professionalism in performing several projects to include subfloor replacement and laminate install in bathroom and kitchen as well as installing insulation in the attic. He is a hard worker and has knowledge of most any needs of install, repairs or yard debris removal and maintenance."
"Abel and the guys at Santos are amazing. Always professional, courteous, and consistently timely. Have never missed a cut, and the yard and shrubs always look great. Abel is trustworthy and always available for your needs….whatever they are. Would absolutely recommend this company."
"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."
"The work was done in a timely, professional manner; overcoming obstacles along the way. We could not be happier with all outcomes. We can already see and feel the improvement!"
According to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, there are over 10,000 kinds of mushrooms, and some are harmful to both humans and animals. However, not all mushrooms are harmful—some feed on thatch and wood, which provides nutrients for grass and plants.
But unless you’re a mushroom expert (mycologist), it can be hard to tell poisonous mushrooms from non-poisonous. So if you have kids or pets (or both), removing them is the safest route to take.
If you want to take the decomposition process into your hands to speed it up, water and sunlight are key. Of course, you can’t control sunlight yourself, but you can rake leaves into piles in sunny spots in your yard. In terms of using water, you can also moisten the decomposing leaves with water, whether by pouring some from a watering can from time to time or using a hose to moisten them.
Yard waste should be professionally removed at least once per season, particularly during major landscaping projects, fall leaf accumulation, or after severe weather. Regular removal promotes lawn health and maintains a neat exterior.
If composting feels too complicated, mulching is an effective alternative. While composting focuses on breaking down yard waste to feed the soil, mulching uses that same organic material as a protective top layer. It's a quick way to get value from leaves, grass clippings, and other yard debris without the time or effort composting requires.
The fastest way to rid your yard of pesky stickers or burs is to go mechanical on them with a lawn mower or garden rake. Use a lawnmower with a bagger attachment to avoid spreading the seeds around and causing a bigger issue. If you choose to rake the stickers off the plants, be sure to dispose of them properly. Avoid putting them in with the composting and check local guidelines for disposing of lawn waste.
