April Tip of The Week

April

Readying The Yard

Planting/Gardening

Week 1: Clear yard of downed tree branches and debris. Leaving these items on your lawn will kill the grass and may cause other damage as well. The earlier you clear branches, leaves, and other debris the healthier your lawn will be all summer long.

Week 2: Tune up Lawn mower/ garden equipment. Test and change the batteries in smoke, heat and gas detectors. Spring cleanup starts.

 Week 3: Check to make sure your sump pump works properly by pouring water into the pump silo to raise the float and   activate the motor.

 Week 4: Hire a professional to inspect and clean chimney. It is easier to schedule a chimney sweep this time of year and allows for enough time to make repairs before the next heating season.
