"Jake and his crew are very fast, professional, and reliable! With very fair prices for lawn care needs, tried a few different company’s but no one compared to Living Greens quality and price."
"He did a great job. He was here on time a finished after cleaning up all the area. Very easy to work with. I will be recommending him to our neighbors and friends."
"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."
"Great husband and wife team. What started as one project turned into multiple projects. They were there working hard everyday until the job was done. Everything looks fantastic. Just the facelift my little house needed!!"

"Backwoods Landscaping did an excellent job at my house. I had them rework and improve several planting beds. Their rates are extremely affordable. They showed up on time and got straight to work. They offered to do additional work that I had forgotten to ask them do. They are conscientious and very hardworking. I was so impressed that no other landscaping company will be considered for future projects at my house. They will do any and all of my work from now on. I suggest anyone looking for lawn or landscaping work give these guys a call. I'm sure you'll be as impressed as I am."
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.
Skunks like to forage for grubs in the soil, like worms and insects, but they are also tempted by trash and pet food bowls, so keeping these items out of sight may help keep skunks away. Skunks also like to set up a den in dark places, such as a crawl space or outbuilding.
Land clearing costs an average of $3,743, but prices can range anywhere from $400 to $15,000, depending on the size of the land you need cleared, how dense the coverage is, and what needs to be removed. Expect prices toward the lower end if your professional just needs to mulch some plants and shrubs on a small patch of land, and expect prices to move toward the higher end for things like taking down a large number of trees and removing landscaping boulders.
It can be bad to leave a dead stump in the ground. A stump becomes a hefty piece of dead wood in time and eventually (especially with the help of rain) starts to rot. That makes it a locus point for diseases and pesky insects, as well as a bit of an eyesore. It’s best to remove a tree stump completely before it starts to decay, especially before it starts to fall apart. If the tree was removed because of disease, it’s even more important to fully remove the stump if possible.
Some things you can do to prepare for yard work services are aerate the soil, fertilize your grass, keep weeds under control, regularly mow your lawn, and water your grass.
