Fall is full of color and beauty, and is a very important part of your lawn fertilization program. We recommend that you remove your leaves off of the lawn, and also arerate your lawn and or over seed if needed.

We recommend that you feed the lawn to keep the nutrients in the roots for the winter, fall winterizer will also help your lawn in the spring become healthier and greener if applied correctly.

Fall is a great time for planting trees, and shrubs. We do sell trees and shrubs if you may have a need for any of these things please give us a call.

Mole Control

admin — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 00:53:11 +0000

Moles are back! These gray, furry 6-8 inch tunnel-making mammals are best controlled in the spring. Tunneling as much as 100 feet per day in their quest for food, mostly earthworms, their main source of food. While they do eat grubs, it’s an old wives tale that grubs are the reason that moles are in a lawn.

Moles are not rodents (like rats and mice) therefore, cannot be baited using rodent foods. Poison peanuts or other grain baits won’t work since moles don’t feed on seeds, alfalfa pellets or any other typical baits that are sold to “kill rodents” even though some say they control rodents and moles. Also, putting mothballs, human hair, razor blades, or chewing gum in their tunnels, or using pinwheels or ultrasonic devices to scare moles away are old wives tales. The most Effective methods are (1) use bait that they are attractive to OR (2) to PHYSICALLY remove them. One proven method is packaged and sold in the form of Worm, they smell attractive and taste that is incorporated into the worm, together with bromethalin (active ingredient that poisons the mole). These worms may be purchased from K. Rhode’s Lawncare.

A scissor trap is one effective mole trap that can be used in subsurface, or deep, mole runs. A harpoon trap is easier to use when the tunnels are near the surface. Placement is critical, Choose a straight run that the mole use regularly, to determine if a run is active, stomp on it, the next day check it, if it is pushed back up it is active. You may purchase the traps from most hardware, home repair, and farm supply stores. Usually right in the middle of a bunch of mole control products… BEWARE! ! !
