How do I keep my lawn green in a drought?

• <div><p>First, make sure you’re watering your grass early in the morning (and keep in mind you don’t have to water every day). Doing this helps ensure the water is able to soak in before the hot temps evaporate all of the water. Also, when you mow, don’t mow your grass as short as you would in non-drought conditions. Taller grass can help slow down the rate at which soil dries out. Finally, take your leftover lawn clippings and spread them out across the lawn to give it a little extra shade and nutrients.</p></div>

Q: Do treatments include follow-up inspections?

• <div><p>Yes, most exterminators provide follow-ups to ensure all bed bugs are eradicated.</p></div>
