Irrigation water can leave a layer of grime on your sprinkler system, which may cause more damage to your valves and sprinkler heads over time.

Watch and learn with step by step instructionsHow to get rid of voles!Holmes Lawn & Pest2023-04-20 | Check out Todays Top Tips With Travis for an even more in depth discussion on how to remove voles from your yard!
Step 1 Grab a leaf rake and lightly rake out the areas You will notice a lot of dead grass along these lines- don’t get too aggressive with it, the goal is to expose the dirt and get a better air flow so that the grass can spread and fill itself in.
Step 2 Look around on the lines for holes. These holes are where the voles go in and out of their tunnels. Fill in the holes with rodent bait
PRO TIP- Fill the holes in with dirt after you insert the rodent bait so that you can see where they are popping back up and where you still have a problem. It is also safer for your pets and children as the bait will harm if ingested
Step 3 Set out bait boxes. We recommend the lockable boxes to keep pets and children safe You want to make sure that you are setting these boxes close to where the damage is and up along structures. i.e. fence line, house, or garden.How to seed your lawnHolmes Lawn & Pest2023-04-19 | Learn step by step how to properly seed your lawn to have a great looking yard this year! 1. Rake out dead grass and other debris from the area you want to seed. The goal is to have good seed to soil contact once you apply the seed.
2. Spread the seed over the desired areas. Be careful not to get seed in unwanted areas like flower beds. Or else you will create much more weeding for yourself later this year.
3. Throw a thin ¼"-½" layer of peat moss over the top of the seeded areas. This will create more seed to soil contact, and help keep the seed in place.
4. You need to keep the top layer of peat moss and soil consistently wet for 3-4 weeks. Depending on your sprinklers and the weather… You should water 3-4 times per day, for 2-5 minutes each area each time.
