Our very own ‘arrival of spring’ alert from Mother Nature!
There’s truly a lot to love about forsythia…
Not quite so appealing, unfortunately, is the fact that; the arrival of forsythia blooms is also a reliable sign that the seeds of early weeds, such as crabgrass, are about to germinate. But, for now, we’ll answer the often asked question when to prune forsythia?
Ants can be quite a big nuisance and not just in your pants! Long lines that extend from your kitchen to your garden, colonies in your closets and just running around, ants can make your skin feel like it’s crawling (generally because there are a few ants making their way up your arm, too!).
Additionally, though it may be easy to dismiss them because of how minuscule they are, ants can be quite damaging to your house, such as carpenter ants. Some ant varieties can be damaging to you, too, such as fire ants and harvester ants that can neatly rip a chunk of your flesh out!
Whether you want some privacy, a better landscape around you or just want to make the world a better place, planting a tree sure does have its benefits (and ones apart from those that we study in environmental education).
For instance, a mature tree can add anywhere between $1,000 and $10,000 to your real estate market value, which is a nice raise.
Additionally, a tree in the right spot can create shade, potentially saving you as much as 56% of your air-conditioning bill per year.
Much as they’re a part of the ecosystem like Mother Nature intended them to be, there’s absolutely nothing harmless about fire ants. Found in 13 of America’s 52 states, these insects, mistakenly brought over from South America in the early 20th century, have definitely overstayed their welcome, causing a range of agricultural and medical problems with their aggressive attacking and repeated stinging.
Fire ants also cause disturbances in local ecosystems, destroying the nests of, well, pretty much anything they get their hands on—lizards, snakes, songbirds, rodents, toads and the like.
If you’re looking to get rid of a fire ant menace in your backyard (and by all means, you should!), here’s a breakdown on all things ‘fire ants’, including their behavior and how to get rid of them!
Poop is not a subject people like to talk about. Whether it is from an animal or a human, it’s stinky, looks disgusting, and is a thoroughly repulsive subject of conversation. But there are so many good things about it that avoiding the discussion is like taking a dump on an easily accessible bounty of natural resources.
If you have a small garden with a compost pit, you are likely to be looking for materials that go into it. When it comes to dog waste, you don’t think of it as anything more than just a discardable element of your life. And typically, it ends up in a plastic bag that finds its way to a landfill.
When it comes to gardening, potting soils are extremely important for proper growth of plants, especially if you are using raised beds or containers to grow your plants.
Whether outdoors or indoors, you need good quality potting soil to make sure that your plants flourish. For proper plant growth, your plants need enough nutrients and a good environment to grow and be healthy. This makes proper potting soil critical to the success or failure of the growth of your plants.
