Simple Ways To Prevent Dog-Related Lawn Damage

Dogs love spending time outdoors. Dog owners with yards know that dogs benefit greatly from some exercise in the backyard. While that time might be great for dogs, it can take its toll on lawns.

Dog urine and feces can adversely affect the look and health of a lush green lawn. Nitrogen is essential to healthy soil, but only at certain levels. When those levels are exceeded, the result can be lawn damage.

According to The Spruce Pets, an advisory site that offers practical tips and training advices to pet owners, this is what happens when pets frequently urinate on grass. Urine is naturally high in nitrogen, so when pets urinate on lawns, the grass might turn yellow or brown due to the excess nitrogen content.

Nitrogen also is present in lawn fertilizers, further exacerbating the problem for pet owners who fertilize their lawns.

In addition to urine damage, dogs can trample frosted grass, contributing to problems that may not become evident until spring, and get into areas like gardens where they wreak

additional havoc. small ones, but try to Pet owners who want to build fenced-in areas that let their dogs run free in allow dogs to run freely the yard, but don’t want and get the exercise they damaged grass may be need to stay healthy. tempted to put their pooches in diapers or confine them • Work with a dog trainer. to crates when letting Dog trainers might be them outside.

Lightbridge Academy Ribbon Cutting Ceremony The Lightbridge Academy’s new location on 20 Carmans Road in Massapequa held their Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Saturday, January 25th. Franchise owner, Sarina Jagtiani, has been working in Early Childhood Education for ten years and received both her Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Early Childhood Education. As a wife and proud mother of two, Jagtiani understands the importance of quality childcare so when it came to staff development for her new center, Jagtiani surrounded herself with company of caliber.

Kristy Roy, who is Jagtiani’s Center Director, has been working in the field of Early Childhood Education for over 20 years. She holds a Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Education

and a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Services. Most recently, she worked as a consultant in the Bureau of Child Care for the New York City Department of Health. Maggie Louissaint is the center’s Assistant Director who has had a long tenure in the field of Early Childhood Education as a toddler and preschool teacher for 12 years.

Together as a team and as new members of the Lightbridge Academy franchise family, Jagtiani, Roy and Louissaint are committed to guaranteeing that each child has a safe and loving environment where they can learn and develop in the ways that are most developmentallyappropriate for them. The Lightbridge Academy of Massapequa offers the same promise and commitment that has existed within the foundation since 2001.

As it enters its 19th year, the Lightbridge Academy has come to develop over 100 franchised child care centers throughout the Northeast and Florida.

Every Lightbridge Academy center earnestly commits itself to fundraising efforts by participating in a variety of community events. There is unquestionably no doubt that the new Massapequa location will contribute to the central core beliefs of the academy’s foundation; a philosophy they call the Circle of Care which prioritizes the well-being of their staff, the children, their families and the community. In 2019, Lightbridge Academy was ranked on Entrepreneur Magazine’s Franchise 500 and it was featured on the Franchise Times Top 200+ in 2018.

RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY - The Lightbridge Academy located at 20 Carmans Road in Massapequa had their Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Saturday, January 25.

On hand for the celebration were owner Sarina Jagtiani and her husband AJ with family, Guy and Julia Falzarano the CEO and Founders of Lightbridge Academy and their son David Falzarano VP of Franchise Development, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran, Nassau County Legislator Rosemary Walker, Farmingdale Chamber of Commerce Members as well as Town of Oyster Bay Representatives.

Helping You Help Others

The Differences Between Organic And Inorganic Mulches

The benefits of mulch are widely known among lawn and garden enthusiasts. By insulating soil from extreme temperatures, helping soil to retain moisture and preventing weed growth, mulch can help plants, trees and gardens thrive, even during periods when Mother Nature can make that very difficult.

Novice gardners may find themselves a little confused when visiting a lawn and garden center to purchase mulch. That’s because there are various types of mulches.

One of the ways to simplify that is to break mulches down into two main classes: organic and inorganic.

Learning to distinguish between these two classes can help homeowners choose the best mulch for their properties.

Organic Mulch Organic mulches are made up of materials that decompose over time. The experts at BobVila.com note that, because they decompose over time, organic mulches must be replenished on a regular bais. Hardwood and softwood chips are among the most popular and recognizable organic mulches. Evergreen needles, leaves, grass clippings, and compost mixes also fall under the organic mulch umbrella. Many gardening enthusiasts prefer organic mulches because they help soil retain moisture, improve soil fertility and help to deter weed growth.

Gravel, brick chips and crushed stone are examples of inorganic mulches.

Homeowners who do not intend to plant after laying mulch may lean toward inorganic mulches, as they won’t require much work, if any, after being laid. However, the Chicago Botanic Garden notes that inorganic mulches do not improve soil quality. In fact, because inorganic mulches like rocks and stones absorb heat, they can be detrimental to plants in areas where weather tends to be very dry and hot.

The right mulch for a given property depends on a host of factors. Understanding the differences between organic Inorganic Mulches and inorganic mulches is Inorganic mulches are a great first step toward permanent because they do finding the right mulch for not decompose over time. your landscape.

The Nassau Suffolk Water Commissioners’ Association (NSWCA), which consists of water commissioners representing 21water districts across Nassau and Suffolk Counties and serves over 625,000 Long Islanders, has awarded the prestigious NSWCA 2020 Nicholas J. Bartilucci Manhattan College Scholarship to Samantha Miraglia of South Farmingdale, New York.

Opened to entering freshmen enrolled full-time in any engineering degree program at Manhattan College, Ms. Miraglia, a Plainedge High School graduate, applied for and was awarded this coveted annual scholarship based on her academic credentials and extracurricular activities.

NSWCA President and Hicksville Water District Commissioner William

Schuckmann presided over the ceremony where Ms. Miraglia was presented with her scholarship and stated, “NSWCA’s annual Nicholas J. Bartilucci Manhattan College Scholarship honors the memory of the late Nicholas J. Bartilucci, who was a dynamic leader in environmentalism and the Long Island water industry.

By enabling outstanding students such as Samantha Miraglia with the means to expand their interest and studies in engineering, we at NSWCA continue to promote Nick’s passion for engineering education, water sustainability and environmentalism here on Long Island while supporting next generation leaders in these areas.”

During the scholarship presentation ceremony, NSWCA President

Schuckmann acknowledged the involvement and assistance of NSWCA member Raymond Averna, Massapequa Water District Commissioner, and Elizabeth Plaushin, Director of Planned Giving at Manhattan College (Riverdale, NY), who were both instrumental in this year’s scholarship selection process.

The presentation ceremony was held at the South Huntington Water District, which was hosted

by South Farmingdale Water District Commissioner and former NSWCA President Gary Brosnan. Among those in attendance during the scholarship presentation were Samantha’s father, Sammy Miraglia, and commissioners from water district members of NSWCA.

How COVID-19 Is Transmitted one another may spread the virus through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of those who are nearby or potentially be inhaled into the lungs.

The CDC notes that the virus is contagious, and that people might be most contagious when they are at their sickest. Symptoms of COVID-19 include difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, persistent pain or pressure in the chest, new confusion or inability to arouse, and bluish lips or face. Additional symptoms may be associated with COVID-19 as researchers learn more about the virus, and people who experience anything unusual should discuss their condition with a physician immediately.

Researchers also suspect that the virus may be spreading through people who are asymptomatic. So even people who do not feel sick or exhibit signs of sickness may unknowingly have the virus, potentially making them capable of spreading it.

Contact With Surfaces The CDC notes that researchers do not suspect that contact with contaminated surfaces or objects is the main way the COVID-19 virus is spreading.

However, the CDC also notes that it may be possible for people to get the virus by touching surfaces of objects that have the virus on them and then touching their own mouths, noses or possibly their eyes. The relative infancy of COVID-19 means researchers have yet to fully understand how the virus is transmitted.

Understanding COVID-19 also involves staying up-to-date on local announcements about the virus and adhering to any restrictions government officials put in place. People living in or near areas where others have been diagnosed should follow all protocols put in place by the government to reduce their own and their neighbors’ risk of exposure to the virus.

More information about COVID-19 is available at www.cdc.gov.

The Polish American Museum Founders Scholarship The Polish American Museum Founders Scholarship applications are now available for the year 2020. The $500 Scholarship is offered to a graduating high school senior of Polish

heritage attending a public, private or religious schools.

The student must be a citizen of the United States, residing in Nassau or Suffolk county and entering college in Fall 2020.

Additional information is available by calling 516-883-6542 or writing Polish American Museum Scholarship Committee, 16 Belleview Avenue, Port Washington 11050.

COVID-19, the novel coronavirus that was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in mid-March 2020, has claimed thousands of lives across the globe. Though the WHO insisted during a press briefing declaring COVID-19 a pandemic that the virus could be suppressed and controlled, Director-General of the WHO Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus described what he felt were “alarming levels of inaction” in regard to preventing the spread of COVID-19.

Understanding COVID-19, including the threat it poses and how it’s transmitted, is of the utmost importance.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there is still much to learn about COVID-19, including how it spreads. However, the CDC notes the following are some ways that researchers, as of March 2020, feel that the virus is transmitted.

Person-To-Person Researchers who have studied the virus feel that it is spread mainly from person-to-person.

If that protective coating can be disrupted, the virus can’t do its job. For those having trouble finding wellknown cleaning agents, these alternatives may suffice.

These recommendations involve using common household products to sanitize homes, offices and public spaces. As people take such precautions, many are stocking up on extra essentials - resulting in shortages.

Everything from hand sanitizers to paper towels may be hard to find on grocery store shelves, leaving some to wonder what they can do to remain safe without sanitizers?

Beautiful landscaping can add instant curb appeal to a property. But beauty isn’t the only thing that makes idyllic landscaping attractive to homeowners.

Some landscaping features, such as shade trees, save homeowners money while adding aesthetic appeal.

The U.S. Department of Energy notes that shading is the most cost-effective way to reduce solar heat gain in a home. Shading also cuts air conditioning costs, which tend to be expensive in areas with warm, humid climates.

In fact, the DOE notes that well-planned landscapes can reduce unshaded homes’ air conditioning costs by anywhere from 15 to 50 percent.

When planting shade trees, one of the first decisions homeowners will need to make is which type of tree, deciduous or evergreen, they want to plant. Deciduous trees are those that seasonally shed their leaves, while evergreens are trees that keep their leaves throughout the year. Deciduous trees can help keep homes cool in the summer by blocking sun, and those same trees can be beneficial in winter after they shed their leaves by letting the sun in and keeping homes warm.

5 Outdoor Projects That Add Value Exterior renovations can enhance the appearance of a property and make it more enjoyable for homeowners.

Certain renovations have the potential to add value to a home, while others may do the opposite. Learning which ones have the largest return on investments can help homeowners select features that will have the most positive impact.

Curb appeal goes a long way toward attracting potential buyers. According to the National Association of Realtors, first impressions of a property have a strong influence on buyers. Landscaping and external features can do much to influence such impressions.

• Lawn care program: Investing in a lawn care program that consists of fertilizer and weed control application and can

be transferred over to a subsequent home owner is an attractive feature. NAR says such a care program can recover $1,000 in value of the $330 average cost, or a 303 percent ROI. • Low-maintenance lifestyle: When choosing materials for projects, those that offer low-maintenance benefits can be preferential. These include low-maintenance patio materials, composite decking, vinyl fencing, and inorganic mulched beds.

• Fire pit: A fire pit can be used for much of the year.

In the spring and summer, the firepit is a great place to congregate to roast marshmallows or sip wine and gaze into the fire. In the fall, the fire pit can make for a cozy retreat. A fire pit that has a gas burner is low-maintenance, and the National Association of Landscape Profession-

als says that most can recoup about $4,000 of their $6,000 average price tag.

• Softscaping: Hard-scaping refers to structures like outdoor kitchens or decks.

Softscaping involves the living elements of the landscape. Hiring a landscape designer to install trees, shrubs, natural edging, and rock elements can do wonders toward improving the look and value of a home.

• Pool or water feature: In certain markets, particularly hot climates, a pool or another water feature is a must-have. However, in other areas where outdoor time is limited, a pool or water feature can actually lower the value of a home. Speaking with a real estate professional can give homeowners an idea of how a pool will fare in a given neighborhood.

always indicative that a roof is on its way out. In fact, the home improvement resource This Old House notes that as asphalt shingles age, their corners often begin to curl downward or upward. Homeowners who notice this early enough can glue down the curled section of each shingle.

Some shingles may be curling because they’re defective. Fortified Roofing, a New Jersey-based roofing company that specializes in the repairing and replacing of various roofing configurations, advises homeowners to contact a local roofing professional to diagnose the cause of the curling. Doing so quickly can prevent curled shingles from contributing to more widespread damage.

Moisture and poor ventilation may be contributing to curled shingles as well.

Homeowners with attics in their home may see curled shingles on their roofs because moisture is building up in their poorly ventilated attics. In addition to causing damage such as curled shingles, a poorly ventilated attic allows moisture to build up, potentially contributing to mold growth.

Improper roof installation also may be the culprit behind curled shingles.

When a roof is not installed correctly, shingles may not be aligned or nailed down in the right way.

Curled shingles are unsightly and can pose a significant threat to a home if not addressed promptly.

Homeowners can protect themselves and their roofs by working with skilled roofing professionals, who can diagnose issues like curled shingles and offer the right solutions.

What Causes Curled Shingles?

No homeowner wants to look at the exterior of his or her home and see roof damage. Such damage may lead homeowners to think they need a new roof, a potentially costly expense that can quickly throw household budgets into a state of disarray.

According to the HomeAdvisor, the average homeowner spends a little more than $7,600 installing a new roof. Various factors, including the size of a home and the type of roof homeowners prefer, will affect the cost of a roof replacement. In addition, homeowners who see roof damage can rest assured that not all roof problems will necessarily require a replacement roof to be installed.

Curled shingles are a problem many homeowners have encountered. This particular problem is not
