7 Places Mosquitoes Might Be Hiding in Your Yard

J. C. Ehrlich Co. Inc. 4383 Lycoming Creek Road • Cogan Station, PA 17728 494-1621

pring has sprung, which means that mosquito season is almost here.

These tiny insects could be living, flying and breeding right in your yard, and you might not even know it.

Mosquitoes aren’t just a nuisance; they are also a health threat. Some species common in the United States can carry and spread Zika virus, Chikungunya virus, West Nile virus and canine heartworm.

The first sign of mosquito activity is usually buzzing from female mosquitoes and their bites.

Where Mosquitoes Breed Female mosquitoes can lay as many as 100 eggs at a time.

They can lay eggs in just a few inches of standing water, making pinpointing breeding sites a challenge. To help homeowners, here are seven places mosquitoes like the most and advice on how to help keep them out of your yard. * Gutters. If enough debris is left

to collect over time, dirty gutters can clog up and create pockets of water perfect for mosquito breeding.

Cleaning gutters regularly to make sure water is flowing smoothly can help keep mosquitoes from breeding so close to your home. * Toys. They are an often overlooked source of standing water, but toys can collect pockets of water and just a few inches is enough for a mosquito to raise a family. * Flowerpots. Rainwater can collect in saucers under flowerpots.

If left to sit for days, the water becomes an excellent breeding

spot for mosquitoes. * Birdbaths. Even though birds eat a variety of insects, standing water in bird baths left unchecked for days at a time can become an oasis for female mosquitoes looking for a place to lay eggs. Inspect and change the water weekly to avoid an infestation. * Rain barrels. If water is used within a few days, it will likely not be enough time to create a mosquito problem, but if water is left standing for multiple days, be prepared to find a hotbed of hungry pests. * Plants. Some plants can hold water in their “mouths” and offer mosquitoes enough standing water to lay their eggs. Other shrubbery can serve as a hideout for grown mosquitoes. In addition to blood, mosquitoes feed on nectar from flowers, so they often hide in shrubbery during the day. Thinning dense shrubbery to increase airflow can help reduce the number of adult mosquitoes in your yard.

* Tree cavities. Each year, cavities in tree stumps and trunks are filled with water by rainfall or melting ice and snow, and mosquitoes may choose these holes for breeding.

While it can be difficult to remove the standing water, a licensed professional can help identify and treat these areas. * Low points in the yard. Any areas lower than the rest of your yard may collect and hold standing water. Make note of these areas when patrolling and be sure to inspect and drain them if necessary.

Take Back Your Yard It’s important to do a weekly inspection of your entire yard to locate and eliminate any standing water. It’s also a good idea to encourage your neighbors to do the same so that mosquitoes aren’t traveling from their yard to yours.

If you’ve done everything you can to help prevent mosquitoes and are still having problems, you may need a licensed professional.

lthough you may be itching to get back outside, before you can relax there’s work to do.

After enduring the wear and tear of fall and winter, most yards need attention to get back into summer shape.

These tips from the experts will help you clean up your entire yard in time for summer so there’s more time to enjoy the great outdoors:

Spring Home Improvement

* Garden - Prepare your planting bed by using a tiller before seeding.

Loosening up existing soil helps water and nutrients reach your new plants’ roots. Better yet, add some manure before tilling to create a healthy growing environment. * Trees - Spring and summer are all about new life and dead tree limbs hanging around your home can kill the mood. Instead of climbing up a

rickety ladder with clippers, keep your feet planted and use a cordless Pole Chain Saw. This lightweight chainsaw allows you to saw off dead limbs and let gravity do the rest... just make sure to stand back using the 15-foot extension. * Mulch - Use the mild weather of spring before it gets too hot to lay down or freshen up the mulch around your plants. A thin (2-3 inches deep) layer of mulch around your landscape will help keep roots cool in the upcoming summer

months and warm when cooler weather inevitably returns again.

* Grass - When your grass is recovering from the long winter, you should wait until your soil dries out before starting work on your lawn because being too eager and working on soggy soil can harm already tender new grass roots. Once your grass is alive and growing, mow only once you need to - grass is at its healthiest if you cut no more than a third of the blade.

pring is one of the most popular times of year to clean up your home inside and out, make renovations and take steps to ensure it operates efficiently for the rest of the year. But after the long winter months, the list of projects can pile up.

1. Repair your roof and gutters.

apply a new coat of sealer and stain.

A local home improvement center can advise you on formulations for your particular needs.

3. Replace your furnace. As you make home upgrades, this is also a good time to upgrade your furnace for greater home comfort and lower energy bills.

4. Replace windows and doors. Older windows can let unwanted air and moisture into your home. Installing newer, more efficient models will not only save money on cooling in summer and heating in winter, but they can bring the look of your home up to date.

Replacing your front door in a great color and style can also add to your home’s efficiency and instantly add curb appeal.

5. Refresh with paint. There’s nothing like a new coat of paint to transform and update the look of a home. It’s also one of the easiest and most economical home improvement projects you can undertake. Check out your local paint store for ideas and suggestions to help you visualize your home in fresh new colors.

6. Refresh your indoor air. The spring and fall months can trigger allergies, so

consider adding an indoor air cleaner. A whole-home system, for instance, can remove up to 99.98 percent of airborne particles and allergens such as pollen, dust mites, mildew, pet hair and dander and fungus and bacteria, so everyone in your home can breathe easier.

Lastly, renew your commitment to home maintenance by creating a yearly schedule of home projects. Mark your calendar with target dates to remind yourself to complete key tasks - including what to focus on for the next season, before the colder months arrive. (BPT)

Inspect the roof to check for loose or cracked shingles. Also, be sure to look at indoor ceilings for any signs of water leakage and get started on repairs before more damage occurs.

Take a look at the gutters to see if there are areas in need of repair as well, and tackle them now before there’s too much rain.

2. Repair and reseal your deck.

Remove debris and sweep the deck clean. Fix broken or bent boards and pushed up nails. Choose a cleanser formulated for your deck surface whether for wood or composite - and

s temperatures rise, it’s the perfect time to gather friends and family for a getaway in your own backyard. Spruce up your space with furniture and accessories that reflect the newest sights and styles of summer for a patio-ready look that truly takes you places.

Nothing brings people together quite like a party on the patio.

Creating a bright, blissful space for your patio celebration is simple

when you coordinate everything from dinnerware and drinkware to seating, accessories and even the entertainment.

Table talk. Making vivid memories is as simple as setting your table with a vibrant array. Top your table with layers of colors, textures and bold patterns. Use shatter-resistant dishes and dinnerware made of melamine for a tabletop that is as attractive as it is easy to care for.

Drink up. Quench guests’ thirst

with a cold, refreshing drink station. Turn one corner of your party into a one-stop shop for drinks. Fill an embossed, copper-finished beverage tub with ice and drinks to create your own personal party server.

It’s a must-have for hosts who like to mingle. Or add punch to your party with a jug-shaped acrylic beverage dispenser and a selection of drinkware made for outdoor entertaining. For example, BPA-free Clarity acrylic

drinkware offers the classic good looks of glassware, but the shatterresistant vessels are at home inside HIC# 8009

you can count on deer damage to your trees, shrubs, gardens and landscapes that you’ve invested much time, money and effort in.

The damage to residential landscapes, crops and timber from deer foraging ranges around $1 billion annually. With a single deer capable of eating a ton and a half of vegetation per year, just one or two deer can cause significant damage.

Deer don’t have to devastate your yard this spring and summer, according to Scott C. Williams with the Department of Forestry and Horticulture at The Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station. “You can definitely use deer’s

see deer populations rise in suburbia across the country.

Don’t discount deer’s intelligence, they’re smarter than you think; they actually possess a memory of negative experiences, learn from them and adapt their habits accordingly. Deer know they’re greatly exposed to danger due to hunters and predators in woodlands and have moved right to the edge of woodlands, in close proximity to suburban neighborhoods, where they’ve learned they’re safe. They’re also smart enough to know danger is not present or even threatening in suburbia and they will remember your bountiful backyard food sources, too. Once in your yard,

intelligence against them to trick them right out of your yard. Just as they learn where to find safe, reliable food sources, you can “train” deer to avoid any specific area.”

Negative conditioning works well to deter deer from your yard, but it’s important to choose a strategy that outsmarts them continuously. Scare tactics such as dogs barking, canned noise and scarecrows have limited effects, as deer quickly learn there’s no real harm associated with these “threats.” Fences also have limitations; deer can easily jump over any fence

“A product that combines scent and taste deterrents, will be most effective in keeping deer away from suburban landscapes,” Williams says. “Deer will remember the unpleasant smell and taste of your backyard’s food source and they’ll pass by your yard rather than eat something they’ve already been conditioned to learn will be distasteful.”

simple trigger or pump spray, according to label directions, and school deer to pass you by. Best practice is to use the product throughout the entire year, since deer and their ability to devastate your yard, are never out of season. Continued use will ensure protection of plants and landscapes and constantly reinforce to the deer that your backyard doesn’t offer any good, tasty sustenance.

Although deer are smart enough to spot easy food sources, it is possible to humanely and effectively keep them out of your backyard all year. It’s a simple matter of using their smarts to outsmart them and convince them they’re better off looking elsewhere for food. (BPT)

Bobbex is more effective than nine other commercial repellents (including coyote urine), scoring a 93 percent in protection, second only to a fence at 100 percent. The all-natural repellent blends six scents, including rotten eggs, garlic, fish, clove oil and vinegar (among other things) to mimic predator scents, classifying it as an effective fear repellent. It also tastes terrible to deer, but is actually good for plants because it contains elements high in nitrogen and phosphorus. The product dries clear, is harmless to humans and pets, won’t burn plants and its odor, after 24 hours, is undetectable to humans.

If the clog remains, or the toilet still isn’t flushing properly, you may need additional support. A drain snake can help break up the clog or a closet auger can help remove larger clogs or foreign objects, such as flushed toys.

Keep clogs from coming back Even if you have short hair or your drains aren’t currently clogged, it’s a good idea to do a little maintenance to prevent future problems.

hen dreaming of your at-home outdoor oasis, safety may not be top-ofmind. But when making decking decisions, a key element to enjoying your retreat for years to come is ensuring it is safe and structurally sound.

The experts offer the following tips for building a safe and worry-free deck: 1. Know your codes. Codes for building materials were established to help ensure quality and safety. The primary

reference for deck requirements is the International Residential Code (IRC).

Use this resource to confirm all your deck materials are code-compliant and deliver the highest levels of quality and peace of mind. For an easy guide, check out this Professional Deck Builder article written by a code official.

2. Build a solid foundation. The substructure is the foundation that supports your deck, not to mention your family and friends. Here, again, pressure-

seven days a week, 24 hours a day. Over time, wood can begin to rot, crack and splinter, increasing the risks of injury and structural failure. To avoid these issues, consider a wood-alternative decking material, such as composite, which offers superior stability that won’t weaken under harsh weather or heavy foot traffic.

Composite boards also deliver a smooth deck surface, require very little upkeep (no sanding, staining or painting) and are guaranteed to last twice as long as the average wood deck.

4. Reinforce with railing. In addition to style, railing adds security and support to a deck. In fact, railing is a building

code requirement if your finished deck if 30 inches or more above the ground.

Available in a variety of styles, composite and aluminum railings are ideal choices for stability and durability. Keep in mind balusters should be spaced no more than four inches apart to prevent small children and pets from squeezing through.

5. Light the night. Prevent unwanted trips and other mishaps by incorporating lighting into your outdoor space.

Outdoor lighting, for instance, provides sophisticated, understated fixtures to enhance the ambiance - and safety - of any deck. Available in multiple colors and styles, the energy-efficient lights are

dimmable, weather-proof and salt-air resistant. Because they are LED lights, they also are cool to the touch, making them safe for homes with children or pets. *Consumer Product Safety Commission, “Outdoor Deck and Porch Injury Study,” 2010. (BPT)

Clover Comeback: Today’s Twist to a Lush, Green, Easy, Eco-smart Lawn Alternative

W

ho doesn’t love the look and feel of a lush, green lawn? Having your home surrounded by gorgeous green turf has forever been part of the American dream. But once reality sets in, maintaining and irrigating traditional turf lawns can cost you time and money.

If you’re an eco-conscious homeowner, or just want gorgeous green surrounding your home, you may find it difficult to justify the expense, water and chemicals

involved in modern lawn maintenance.

Many smart, eco-conscious homeowners are finding a sure-fire solution in a lush, fast-growing and hardy ground cover that’s been unfairly relegated to weed status for decades.

Clover is making a comeback.

“If you’re older than 30, you may remember your father trying to rid his manicured lawn of clover that just kept on growing,” says Troy Hake, owner of seed company, Outsidepride.

The splendor of sustainable clover Clover comes in a wide variety of sizes, but rich green leaves are characteristic of all clovers. Miniclover, considered the top turf alternative for lawns, is a perennial that grows to be about 4 inches tall - about half the size of the White Dutch Clover common in lawns you’ve seen for years. Miniclover is a productive producer and the more you mow it, the smaller the leaf sizes will grow, providing a thick, carpet-like appearance that blends well with turf.

Miniclover’s growth begins earlier than grass and continues to stay green and thrive even when drought conditions

com. “Today, clover has turned over a new leaf. It offers many advantages over traditional turf, which is why golf courses and sports fields in Europe have been using it for years instead of grass.

Clover stays green longer, grows fast, thrives in shade or sun, and even acts as a natural fertilizer wherever it grows.

Miniclover is especially attractive, and can help you get that thick, lush, lovely green lawn you’ve been looking for.”

As more Americans become aware of the need to use more natural and sustainable lawn care practices, and warmer weather brings more water shortages throughout the country, clover is gaining ground in residential lawns across the U.S.

Hardy and versatile Miniclover grows well in sun or partial shade and its deep roots, (deeper than traditional turf) enable it to reach the natural water table and give it a high tolerance for drought conditions. Clover stays green long after grass has turned brown - a significant advantage as water shortages continue to occur across the country. In fact, 80 percent of state water managers surveyed by the Government Accountability Office in 2014 said they expect some portion of their states to experience water shortages within the

Dollar-smart A full or partial clover lawn will not only save money on your water bill, you’ll spend less on lawn care, too. Miniclover is fast and easy to grow, requires much less mowing and fertilization, and less investment in maintenance. Because it’s a semi-aggressive species, after an initial seeding, Miniclover will quickly fill in gaps in lawns, preventing weeds from filling in bare spots.

“Miniclover is very cost-effective, within the first year after sowing, you could recoup your investment with lower fertilizer, weed control, mowing and irrigation costs,” Hake says. (BPT)

Miniclover can also be used for erosion control; it tolerates wear, so it’s a smart choice for high-traffic areas like golf courses - or your backyard where children and pets run and play all summer!

Easy on the environment Clover is environmentally friendly in multiple ways. In addition to needing less water to thrive, it can grow in poor soil without the need for chemical fertilizers. In fact, because clover infuses the soil with nitrogen, it acts as a natural fertilizer and can actually make surrounding grass healthier when you mix it in a turf lawn. Clover can be a natural way to fix soil that’s nitrogen

grass turns brown after the first frost while cool-season grass stays green nearly all year in cool and transitional zones, but will turn brown in summer in warm-season zones. The southern states tend to support warm-season grasses, such as Bermudagrass or Zoysiagrass, while northern states house cool-season grasses, like Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass or tall fescue. Across the central states, from coast to coast, are large sections of transitional areas, which are home to both warm- and cool-season grasses. * Determine soil type and drainage.

Choosing the right fertilizer also depends on your soil type. Sandy soil

drains well, giving grass plenty of access to oxygen; however, nutrients can leach out with draining water.

Clays and other poor-draining soils can be fertile, but poor drainage can still result in unhealthy grass. * Learn the number system. Bags of lawn fertilizer feature three numbers, such as 28-3-5 or 20-5-10, which represent the percentages of nutrients.

The first number is nitrogen (N), which helps grass grow and become greener.

The second number is phosphorus (P), which stimulates root and seedling development, and the third is potassium (K), which promotes tolerance against disease and drought. Avoid

fertilizers containing high amounts of phosphorus, unless establishing new turf by seed or a deficiency is indicated by a soil nutrient test. * Choose the best option. Most in-store fertilizers come in two categories: quick-release and slow-release. Quickrelease granules let nutrients reach the soil fast, which helps the lawn green up in a shorter time span, but the risk of damage and disease is increased if over-applied. Slow-release fertilizers may not give your lawn that quick, green color response, but will last longer overall and require less frequent applications.

Your lawn needs nutrients provided by fertilization to prompt healthy growth. A well-fed lawn results in that desired vibrant green color; higher grass density; faster, healthier growth; lower ambient temperature; quicker recovery from pest and weed damage; and resistance to stress conditions, such as extreme weather and heavy traffic.

Choosing the Right Fertilizer Fertilizing for your lawn’s specific needs can keep it healthy in the face of weather conditions, climate and heavy usage. Use these tips to pick the best fertilizer for your lawn: * Identify your grass. Warm-season

LAWN ANALYSIS

backyard should be enjoyed to its fullest extent. But all too often, homes lack enticing outdoor living areas. One way to give your outdoor space a retreat is to add a new deck.

A well-designed deck can extend your living space, make your yard more functional and, best of all, provide a comfortable space for family and friends to enjoy the great outdoors.

If you’re ready to build a new deck and turn your backyard into your favorite “room” in the house, here are five must-ask questions to help you design the perfect addition.

1. What do you want your deck to do?

A deck can boost the value of your yard, but only if it fits the way you live. So, before tackling a deck project, set aside time to think about how you plan to use your new space.

Whether you’re designing a multilevel deck for entertaining or a small, peaceful getaway, a little forethought can go a long way to ensuring your deck suits your family’s lifestyle.

For example, if outdoor entertaining is what your deck is all about, an expansive deck with multiple level changes, handrails and furniture can streamline traffic flow and define areas for eating, socializing and relaxing. If a peaceful deck-escape is more your style, a free-standing deck tucked into some foliage in your backyard with a screening trellis and a water feature

get out of it. Decks positioned near frequently used openings, such as the kitchen door, make it simple to travel from one area to the other and are perfect for entertaining. Additional pathway features, like decorative stones and ground lighting, can help guests transition smoothly between your deck and yard.

If you have a raised or multi-level deck, be sure to think about stairs and railings. While these features make it safe to move between your house and

backyard, they can also add visual distinction to your deck. Curved stairs, decked out walkways, backlit risers and decorative glass panels can all showcase your creativity while guiding visitors through outdoor living spaces.

3. Is your deck near water?

about their deck’s long-term beauty,” says Randy Gottleib, president of ChoiceDek composite decking.

4. How do you want your deck to look?

To make sure your new addition is as big on looks as it is on function, spend time dreaming about how you want your deck to look. Whether you favor sleek, clean lines or more adventurous deck patterns, the secret to a beautiful backyard deck is to make sure it ties-in with your home’s architecture.

You can select from a wide array of decking color combinations that

complement indoor flooring options, including popular greys and rich dark browns. Or, use contrasting colors to balance your home’s exterior color scheme. If you love the look of wood but don’t want to deal with all the upkeep, look for modern composites that mimic the appearance of traditional wood decking. Their realistic wood grains blend beautifully into the landscape, and complement many of today’s exterior siding options.

5. Are you designing a curved deck?

If you’re still looking for a way

to set your yard apart, consider incorporating curves into your deck design. Curves can add architectural interest by following the contours of your landscape, encircling hot tubs and pools, or contrasting the straight lines of your house.

Get creative, but don’t let materials limit your design. By following manufacturer instructions, you can shape contemporary materials like composite decking into stunning curves that will have neighbors commenting on your deck for years to come. (BPT)

ou’ve waited all winter for the chance to transform your lawn from that drab, frozen tundra into the lush, green oasis you know it can be. But this transformation doesn’t happen overnight, and you can’t expect Mother Nature to take care of everything herself. Getting your dream yard is going to require a little work on your part, but the

rewards are worth the efforts and as you’ll see, even the smallest changes can have a big impact. Follow each of the five simple tips below and you’ll be enjoying your yard all season long. * Water more heavily, less often.

When it comes to watering your lawn, less is more, provided you’re talking about watering frequency and not water amount. Instead of several

light sprinklings, give your lawn one thorough watering (about an inch a week) and you’ll ensure more of the water is absorbed by your lawn instead of being lost to evaporation. * Cut right, cut smart.

When it comes to lawn care, having the right mower makes all

the difference. Husqvarna lawn mowers with high performance

needed water, air and nutrients to make it down to the root structure, supporting future grass development and long-term yard health. * Get motivated to mulch. Regular mulching reduces weeds while promoting the health and growth of your lawn by returning needed nutrients back to the soil. In addition, because mulch clippings are comprised of 85 percent water and just 5 percent nitrogen, leaving

them on your lawn can satisfy as much as 25 percent of your fertilizer needs. So the next time you feel the need to bag, opt to mulch instead.

After months of winter weather, you’re ready to relax on your beautiful green lawn once again, and getting there is easier than you think.

Lower the lighting.

Adjusting the lighting can completely alter the atmosphere in a bedroom. Install a light dimmer or add a programmable timer that turns lights off and on automatically, to help lull you to sleep, yet brighten the room when it’s time to get up.

Treat yourself to new window treatments.

Add to the easy-breezy feel of the room by purchasing fresh, flowing curtains or sleek new blinds that can be easily adjusted to block out

the daylight.

Simplify for serenity’s sake.

Eliminate clutter to keep it out of sight - and out of mind. Add cabinetry with built-in organization features like drawer inserts. Add more shelving in the closet.

Use baskets and pottery to keep small items contained.

Having everything in its place will help you feel free to relax in your beautiful new bedroom.

Smart Ways to Boost Your Home’s Energy Efficiency

Y

ou wouldn’t know it with the mild weather we’re having this winter, but spring is fast approaching. Building industry experts say now is an ideal time to carefully consider and prioritize home renovation plans. Most homeowners will opt to address the cosmetic features of a home when completing a renovation project to add comfort and value. However, it’s often what you can’t see that can have the biggest impact.

Before diving into any home renovations, consider the “skeleton” of your home,

known as the building envelope, rather than just the cosmetic features such as chrome fixtures or granite countertops.

For instance, high efficiency windows are an excellent investment for any home renovation to help drive down excessive energy waste and high utility costs. The U.S. Department of Energy suggests that traditional windows contribute to as much as 10 percent of the total amount of air escaping from a typical home, while improperly sealed doors can contribute a further 11 percent.

the types of materials available and how well they perform over the long term.

Spray foam insulation, available from Icynene, is growing in popularity among homeowners since it is an energy-efficient insulation material that delivers year-round benefits. Spray foam insulation works well in all types of homes across the country, regardless of climate, to curb air loss and retain the conditioned air within your home to maintain a consistent, even temperature.

Spray foam insulation performs for the life of the property, ensuring that homeowners can enjoy comfortable indoor temperatures all year round without overrunning their heating and cooling equipment and accumulating high heating and cooling costs every month. (BPT)

is researching and selecting high efficiency, green materials in commonly used rooms, such as bathrooms. Low flush water systems, solar hot water systems and even small-scale geothermal energy systems, as well as Energy Star-rated appliances, can reduce energy consumption and your overall carbon footprint while maintaining a comfortable, enjoyable living space for you and your family.

Investing in an effective insulation solution also can make a noticeable impact on reducing household utility costs.

Building experts suggest that homeowners completing a home renovation should be as involved as possible in determining the best insulation type for their home. This means that homeowners should actively research
