Beautifully. Only one hitch when one of the painters cleaned his brushes too near the house. He did this in an area where my dogs could get to the remains of paint. We live on 5 acres so there was no reason for this one guy to clean brushes near our house. <br />

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Yes, many services offer environmentally friendly disposal options.

You can’t typically leave your grill on the curb for your regular trash pickup. Most waste removal services will require that you schedule a special bulk pickup or dispose of your grill another way due to its large size and weight. Otherwise, you may receive a fine for leaving your grill out. Scheduling a bulky item pickup helps waste management workers prepare properly for a larger item like a grill.

According to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, there are over 10,000 kinds of mushrooms, and some are harmful to both humans and animals. However, not all mushrooms are harmful—some feed on thatch and wood, which provides nutrients for grass and plants.

But unless you’re a mushroom expert (mycologist), it can be hard to tell poisonous mushrooms from non-poisonous. So if you have kids or pets (or both), removing them is the safest route to take.

If you want to take the decomposition process into your hands to speed it up, water and sunlight are key. Of course, you can’t control sunlight yourself, but you can rake leaves into piles in sunny spots in your yard. In terms of using water, you can also moisten the decomposing leaves with water, whether by pouring some from a watering can from time to time or using a hose to moisten them.

Always begin by removing large debris, leaves, and branches from your lawn to make room for the rest of your lawn maintenance checklist. Move on to mowing, weeding, and edging in the spaces between your lawn and garden. Lastly, clean off all hardscapes, porches, and patios for a fresh and tidy appearance.
