"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."

"My backyard was so overgrown with all kinds of plants shrubs, small little garden spots throughout the yard. There was a raised Gordon bed. They cleaned everything up for me and hold it all way I now have one solid backyard. They even trimmed my hedges. They were so easy to deal with. They’re very reasonable in price. I am actually having them come back and move stone out of my front yard and make a little patio for me for my swing. I will recommend them to everyone."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

There are several ways to decompose yard waste quickly. The first step is to move all debris into a compost bin or pile. From there, microorganisms, bacteria, and insects will break down the yard waste into compost. To speed things up, shred the waste into smaller pieces, add live worms to the pile, or introduce nitrogen-rich compost accelerators like grass clippings, coffee grounds, and manure. Turn the compost over every few days. This process, called aerating, allows oxygen to get in and accelerate decomposition.

There are several ways to dispose of excess sod, including building a compost pile, taking it to a green waste disposal facility, donating the sod, or reusing it in another part of your yard. It’s a good idea to check with your local municipality to see how to get rid of yard waste, as some areas have local regulations on what can go in the green waste bin. For example, your recycling services may reject too much soil added to green waste.

In most cases, it’s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot.

Your dog’s diet plays a major role in the amount of nitrogen in the dog’s urine. A high-protein diet leads to higher nitrogen levels because digesting proteins break down the protein and form nitrogen as a result. 

You should also ensure that your dog is drinking plenty of water. Staying hydrated naturally helps dilute nitrogen concentrations in urine—not to mention, it’s better for your dog’s health.

Don’t pick up dirt after aerating. Even though it's tempting because soil cores are incredibly unsightly, these cores and the dirt they leave behind are ecologically important. This is what keeps your grass looking beautiful and growing healthily. The soil cores need two to three weeks to decompose, but you can swat them with a rake if their natural shape bothers you.
