"I tried to contact them via Angie's list but did not get a response. Then went to their website and got a very prompt response. I told Terry what I needed, including other work that has not been done yet. I had the measurements of the area to be mowed and we agreed upon a price. He also agreed to come out that afternoon and look at the other job to give me a price on that. I was at work when I talked to him but was off that afternoon. When I got home, I was amazed to see that the lawn had already been mowed and was a very good job! They treated the job exactly the way I would have. Can't ask more than for someone to treat your property the way they would their own. The price was a little high for the small area mowed, but I understand that there has to be a minimum, otherwise it is not worth their time to even come out, however, after Terry came to look at the other job and saw the area that his guys had mowed, he said he would knock off $10 for future mowing. I have hired him for the other job as well and will review that once it is done."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

In general, you can prune up to one third of the height of most shrubs without damaging them. There are a few exceptions to this rule: Pine shrubs, for example, can’t be trimmed below the point of new growth without damaging them.

Clearing 1 acre of land takes anywhere from two to 12 hours for a professional team, depending on what they’re removing. The amount of time needed to complete the project depends on the size of your acreage, the land’s condition, the size of the crew completing the work, and what type of equipment they’re using. Smaller projects normally take a few hours, while larger projects may require one or two full workdays.

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.

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.

A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.
