Community Responsive Lawn Care

Maintaining a yard should be considered in light of the community a homeowner is living in. Before employing maintenance practices, a homeowner must assess the kind of neighborhood he or she is on. There may be challenges concerning water use, landscaping, architecture and pest control that is especially unique to a certain community. Hence, a responsible homeowner should always take precaution when performing lawn care tasks, maintenance, or repairs. The primary consideration should always be how any act of maintaining, repairing, or landscaping a lawn would affect not only the homeowners but also the neighbors and the community in general.

Among such considerations that a good homeowner may do include: 1) not planting shrubs and trees that would block the sunlight from a neighbor’s house or yard, 2) not performing lawn care maintenance where tools could produce noise at hours where neighbors are still sleeping or about to go to sleep, 3) avoiding blowing over leaves into a neighbor’s yard or the streets, 3) cleaning stagnant water in your yard where mosquitos could breed, 4) when maintaining ponds in your yard, a mosquito fish or any mosquito control product should be added, and 5) when maintaining landscapes, consider keeping it more natural in order to have a more positive impact aesthetically and environmentally.
