Q: Is it better to mulch over rocks or remove rocks?

• <div><p>In most cases, it&rsquo;s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot. </p></div>

Q: How often should I pick up dog poop in the yard?

• <div><p>If your dog always does their business in the yard, daily poop pick-up makes sense. The nitrogen in the poop can start making its way into the grass and surrounding soil quickly, a rain shower can send the waste into waterways, and less poop lying around means less chance of stepping on it accidentally. </p></div>

Q: What tool is used to remove unwanted grass?

• <div><p>Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. </p></div>

Q: What season should I trim bushes?

• <div><p>Typically, the best type to trim bushes is when they&rsquo;re dormant. Winter and late fall, potentially even early spring are the best times to trim your bushes. These seasons allow you better access to the branches, as all leaves are gone and the branches are more brittle, making the trimming process easier. </p></div>

Wetty took this job on himself! 7 truckloads of brush taken away in about 6 hours. It was so good my neighbor asked for Wetty's phone number for a friend that needed brush removal.
