Male Ticks In The Fall
Posted 9/10/2018 at 4:31:23 PM
Its getting cooler out. What that means for us, is a final Tick & Mosquito treatment.
Adult male ticks are most active in the fall. Anyone with outdoor cats and dogs can attest to that.
Our goal is to make our clients yards as safe as they can be,
so that they can still continue to enjoy their out door space, regardless of the time of year!
Organics, and traditional, going on NOW!

Crabgrass, when do you treat?
Posted 4/19/2018 at 10:18:41 AM
Crab grass is best treated in the spring. I get calls right now every year from new clients,
"my neighbor just got treated, when will you be treating?" Crabgrass is treated when the soil temperatures get to about 50 degrees, for four or more consecutive days.
When you are a company that treats 2000 lawns, you put it down whenever you get a break in the weather.
When you are Paradise Grounds, you do it when it is the proper time to do it.
I watched a competitor put down pre-emergent in the snow yesterday...................

Ticks in Spring
Posted 3/22/2018 at 12:11:35 PM
Cannot believe we were getting calls for Ticks already on dogs and cats in March!
Thankfully, the last couple of rounds of snow gave people a little reprieve.
Syracuse and Central New York has a tick issue.
We are here to help folks, give us a call if you are at all concerned. It makes a difference!
Think spring!

Ticks In The Fall
Posted 10/20/2017 at 9:20:11 AM
Male Ticks are in their prime right now. Lurking everywhere, and looking for something warm to latch onto.
Please check your animals and your children daily.
Many of us have a false sense of security once we hit a few good frosts, believing the cold
has killed off those horrid ticks. But it has not. It puts the adult male into overdrive, looking for another meal.
Spray your yard, spray your clothing, and inspect, inspect, inspect. Don't be afraid of your environment, control it.

Fall spraying for TICKS & WEEDS

Is it me, or was this one of the most non summers we have had?
It was either cold or raining 80% of the time.
Now that fall is actually ahead, some things you should keep in mind are:
Male ticks are most active in the fall. If you are still enjoying your yard
make sure you are protecting your family and pets.
Tough weeds receive their most effective treatments in the fall.
Cool days and warm nights, the very best time to treat.
Think green!
