Mother’s day gift

May 7th, 2013 by Tuff Turf Molebusters

Looking for the perfect gift for your mom for mother’s day? Nothing says I love you more than having her wasps, mosquitoes, moles, or weeds taken care of. We are finishing our crabgrass control this week, so it is not too late to purchase a program for your mom. The lines are short and you don’t even have to leave your house.


Annual Bluegrass Causes Blotchy Lawns

May 3rd, 2013 by Tuff Turf Molebusters

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Annual bluegrass is beginning to seed right now. Grass that is seeding is always a lighter color than the rest of the lawn. This makes it look like there are white weeds all over the lawn, giving it a very “blotchy” appearance for the next several weeks. Get your annual bluegrass under control today!

2012 to 2013 comparison

April 30th, 2013 by Tuff Turf Molebusters

What a difference a year makes. Remember the hot March of ’12? At this point last year we had fertilized 11,548,870 sq ft more than we have this year, and we did it with 25% fewer technicians. That converts to 265 acres.


Rain

April 24th, 2013 by Tuff Turf Molebusters

This month is our 3rd rainiest month in history.  If you want to find a month with more rain, you have to go back 117 years in June.


Mole Control trap kills 2 for 1!

Sometimes it helps to have a little luck. Our single mole control trap caught two Michigan moles!


Client Flags Mole Activity

April 19th, 2013 by Tuff Turf Molebusters

Our client who lives on (or in) Reeds Lake flagged his new mole activity for us. We might have to check back on this lawn a little later before we do any mole control… give it an hour or two to dry.


Be careful what you wish for

Last spring and summer we complained about how hot and dry it was. Every day I was hoping to see cooler temperatures and rain in the forecast.

Could this be the last snow pile we see for awhile?  You never know with this year!
