TERMITES ARE SWARMING!! Termites are looking for places to start new colonies. It is always better to treat your home as a preventative measure than to wait until you have an infestation because you may not notice signs of them until the damage has already been done. They aren't just a nuisance; they can cause structural damage to your home that is costly and unsafe. Billions in damages are reported in Florida due to termite damage to homes and businesses.

Benefits of Mulching around trees...
Grass typically struggles to grow around the base of trees due to lack of sunlight under the tree's canopy & competing for water with the tree’s roots. Mulching around your tree is not only a great alternative, but also beneficial to your tree’s health because:
• Mulch insulates the soil helping to provide a buffer from hot temperatures.
• Mulch retains water helping to keep the roots moist.
• Mulch minimizes weeds to help prevent root competition.
• Mulch helps prevent soil compaction.
• Mulch reduces lawn mower damage.
Pull Mulch away from the tree trunk (RIGHT WAY) as it allows moisture to escape, preventing the growth of fungus & minimizing rot & decay. Mounding mulch up around the tree trunk can lead to fungus, rot and decay and ultimately lead to the tree’s death (WRONG WAY)

Just a friendly reminder as you get the itch to decorate for the holidays, those boxes that you've had stored for months may have some bugs in them. Be sure to open the boxes in an outdoor area and check all the items inside thoroughly before bringing them into your home. Nothing ruins the holidays more than sharing it with unwanted pests*.
*Note: The term "pests" in this post is not referring to any crazy family members that may visit during the holidays. 😁

Are you watering correctly during the spring & summer months?
Regardless of whether it rains or not, keep your sprinklers on and set to water at least twice a week for 45-60 minutes per zone as permitted by the watering restrictions in your area. Set them to water early enough so that all zones have finished their cycle by 9:30am. Watering after 9:30am through the heat of the day will cause you to lose quite a bit of the water to evaporation. Check your sprinkler heads at least once every month to ensure they are covering all the areas properly and not in need of adjustment. If you notice browning areas or thinning areas, the sprinkler head may need to be adjusted to provide more water to that area, especially if it has full sun exposure. It is also important that you don't water in the evening because it can promote fungus.

There is fungus among us!
Brown patch fungus thrives in soil that is damp for an extended period during colder months that appear as brownish orange colored circular patches. To lessen the chances of developing this fungus, decrease your watering schedule in the winter months here in Florida and be sure to water only in the morning hours, not in the evening. The usual watering schedule to follow during the winter months is once a week for 30 minutes per zone but if your yard is susceptible to holding water or has developed fungus before, consult the Pest Control company that treats your lawn to advise how often you should water. If you need a Pest Control company, give us a call at (904) 726-8728.
