Is Your Lawn Still Covered With Leaves From The Fall?

Fall can be busy, and that makes it difficult to sometimes remove all the leaves from your lawn. It’s tough to squeeze that in between soccer and football games, apple picking, and other family activities. Winter leaf removal from your lawn is important for several reasons:

  1. Prevents suffocation: A thick layer of leaves on your lawn can prevent oxygen and sunlight from reaching the grass. This can lead to suffocation and weaken your lawn, making it more susceptible to disease, pests, and other stressors.
  2. Prevents mold and fungus growth: A buildup of leaves on your lawn can create a damp environment that is conducive to mold and fungus growth. This can damage your lawn and create an unhealthy environment for you and your family.
  3. Prevents pests: Leaves on your lawn can attract pests such as rodents, insects, and other animals. These pests can damage your lawn and create a nuisance for you and your family.
  4. Aesthetics: A well-maintained lawn is an important part of curb appeal. Removing leaves from your lawn can improve its appearance and make your home more attractive to potential buyers.
  5. Eases spring maintenance: If you remove leaves from your lawn in the winter, you’ll have less work to do in the spring when it’s time to start preparing your lawn for the growing season. This can save you time and effort in the long run.

Overall, removing leaves from your lawn in the winter is an important part of lawn maintenance that can help keep your lawn healthy, pest-free, and attractive. Schedule your leaf removal with us today!

Winter Tree Maintenance

The winter months are a great time to perform tree services. During the colder months, homeowners generally do not think about their trees, mostly because their time spent outdoors is limited, but winter is a great time to remove or prune trees because trees are dormant, and many trees can be pruned anytime of the year.

Obviously, some tree removals have to be done right away, especially if they are a safety hazard, but many removals can wait until the leaves are gone and the weather is cold.

Here are a few more reasons to have tree work performed in the winter:

  • The ground is often frozen thus minimizing yard damage
  • The leaves are not on the trees thus making the workload lighter
  • Trees are dormant

To that last point, the health of the tree is a great reason to wait until Winter to have your trees trimmed or pruned. Fresh cuts are less likely to attract insects and spread bacteria, and removing weak or damaged limbs can eliminate safety hazards in the event of a big snow or ice storm. Without leaves, the branches are easier to see so that a certified arborist can be sure to help the tree maintain its structural integrity as they are making cuts.

Winter will officially be here before we know it, so reach out to us today for a free consultation!

It is important for the health of your landscaping to remove leaves from your lawn because they harbor fungal material such as spores that harm the health of plants in your landscaping. That material, if left unchecked, can also attract and harbor insects that can do damage to your trees and your lawn. Once the leaves have been removed, we can also provide weed control to jumpstart your lawn for the warmer months. Our team is here to help!

Dead limbs should be inspected by a certified arborist and removed if necessary. These limbs can do serious damage to property and landscaping, particularly as the weather gets colder and the wind picks up. If you see limbs and branches that concern you, please give us a call to come for a free consultation.

Prep Your Landscaping For The End of Summer

Though it seems as though summer has just begun, time is flying by this year! As the temperatures get ready to start dropping, there are several things you can do to prep your lawn and landscaping for the Fall and Winter months.

Lawn Care

Depending on the amount of rain that has fallen during the Summer months, your lawn could look green and luscious, or it could be a bit brown and lifeless. To help maintain the health of the turf, we can provide grub control in the lawn. Grubs eat the root systems of turf which affects the whole plants ability to survive. We also fertilize to give the turf the nutrients that it needs and provide weed control which helps reduce or eliminate competition from weeds. Our expert team can help with this!

Monitoring Pests

Insects can wreak havoc on your plants and shrubs during the dry summer heat, as can squirrels, chipmunks, and rabbits. Reach out to us for recommendations on how to keep them away!

Checking for Dead Limbs

Dead branches and limbs can be treacherous to your home and landscaping if they are to fall during a thunderstorm. Have an expert come out and evaluate the hazard of the tree; specifically the location of the tree, the species of the tree, the age of the tree, the health of the tree and the structural integrity and architecture or its growth habit. You can also prune shrubs and low branches to keep them away from walkways, air conditioning units, and your house.

Is Your Landscaping Summer Ready?

The weather has finally warmed up and now’s the time to enjoy the outdoors! Are your outdoor spaces the envy of the neighborhood? If the answer is no, we can help you with your landscaping!

It doesn’t even have to be anything extravagant, sometimes merely some edging and mulching beds is all that’s needed to make a huge difference. Pair that with removing those leaves you didn’t get to before the winter last Fall, taking care of fertilizing and some new grass seed, and you’re all set to entertain this summer.

Looking for a more serious overhaul of your landscaping? Start with some beautiful pavers for sidewalks and retaining walls, then add on some energy efficient lighting that will illuminate the exterior for a stunning outdoor space. Spencer’s Tree and Landscape Solutions can even add a water feature or two, and will work to stay within your budget.

If your landscaping needs some TLC, give us a call or contact us here today!
