Rainy Season
Rainy season is here, June – September has an average of 8 inches of rain per month, when the rest of the months in the year average 2 inches of rain. The combination of excessive moisture and extreem heat create the perfect environment for Fungus. The summer of 2011, Fungus was among us and difficult to contain. Early detection, proper treatment and follow up applications are crucial in controling the fungal disease. Fungus ussually shows by light green or yellowing green rings in your normally green lawn. These rings turn to circles then areas, Fungus has other ways of showing its self and a variety of forms. Mushrooms are a fungus but are not a cause of damage to your lawn.
Erosion control, Erosion control is the practice of preventing or controlling wind or water erosion in agriculture, land development and construction. Effective erosion controls are important techniques in preventing water pollution and soil loss. Coastal Quality uses erosion control methods in commercial and residenctial environments. In urban areas erosion control is often management of stormwater and/or watershed from structures. We can help build controls, often involving the creation of a physical barrier, such as vegetation or rock, to absorb some of the energy of the wind or water that is causing the erosion. In some urban situations construction of collection systems/sediment basins with emitters are necessary in efforts to absorb some of the energy to significantly reduce damaging effects.
