The first step to solid and environmentally responsible lawn care is understanding your lawn and its needs. Slug-A-Bug can help assess and advise you on what’s necessary for your patch of earth to flourish. Our interest in sustainability and low-impact practices also means we like to know how elements work together. Every piece matters and relates to other.
Important questions about your lawn include:
- What kind of soil is in your yard? This partially determines what can grow or what additional components are necessary for flowers or a garden.
- What sorts of natural flora and fauna already exist in or near your lawn?
- What kinds of wildlife might be attracted to your lawn (and perhaps your house from there)? This will help you strike a balance between healthy elements of the ecosystem and those you wish to keep out.
- How well does your soil hold rainwater, and what kinds of irrigation methods are possible for your lawn?
- Which mowers and trimmers best suit the terrain?
- When and how often should you fertilize?
- How do you grow grass in shady areas?
- How do you identify and get rid of weeds?
Slug-A-Bug can help answer these questions. We approach lawn care, just as we do our pest control services, from a sustainability mindset. Call us at (321) 259-7844 for a free evaluation.
