Q: How do you clean an overgrown yard?

• <div><p>The best way to clean an overgrown yard is to create a multi-stage game plan, from clearing out the debris to cleaning up the edges around hardscaping and landscape curbing. Get rid of yard debris like worn furniture and broken tools first, then start trimming and raking what&rsquo;s left. Mow the grass, trim the hedges, and rake leaves away. Once that&rsquo;s complete, move on to more detailed work, like pulling weeds and replanting gardens.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to mow the lawn?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-lawn-mowing-cost.htm">cost to mow a lawn</a> is about <b>$125</b>, ranging between <b>$50 and $200</b> per cutting, depending on yard size. Other cost factors include the shape of your lawn, accessibility, lawn health, type of grass, length of grass, and frequency of the mowing schedule. The cost to cut your grass will also vary depending on where you live. If your landscaper has to maneuver around obstacles or deal with hard to reach areas and steep slopes, this will likely increase your total mowing costs.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if I have carpetgrass?

• <div><p>Carpetgrass is distinguishable by its pale green to yellowish color and coarse appearance that grows well under shady conditions in poor and compact soils. If it grows uncontrolled, it tends to develop a hairy seedhead, giving patches of grass a messy appearance. If carpetgrass is regularly cut, it looks very similar to centipedegrass and St. Augustine grass, and people may confuse them. Carpetgrass blades are flat and rounded at the tip. Note that the grass only typically grows as a weed in Southern states.</p></div>
