Contrary to popular belief, it's not necessary to have a yard to start a garden. Many condo dwellers grow flowers, herbs, vegetables, and fruits right on their balconies, even if they don't have much space.

Humans are not the only creatures that love warmer months. Many annoying bugs that invade our homes and our gardens thrive in the summer. Although sometimes they are only a nuisance, dealing with an infestation can be draining.

When you’re trying to figure out what risk you have of home flooding issues, the “100-year flood zone” is a concept that will likely come up at some point. However, many people don’t know what this means or how to really assess whether they’re likely to experience flooding in different areas. Here’s what you need to know to keep your home from flooding.

Like any of the small critters that can often be found in residential areas, squirrels can often be a nuisance. They spend most of their time foraging for food and a fully stocked garden makes that process a lot easier. Squirrels often target fresh fruits, vegetables, and flowers, causing trouble for many home gardeners.

Skunks are troublesome animals you do not want in the garden. As a nocturnal species, they will steal your produce and dig holes in the yard while you are fast asleep. What’s worse is they will cause a terrible stink that lasts for days at a time if they get scared.

The key to garden success is, ironically, in your garage! When the weather is nice out, you should declutter and clean it out. You can put your garden tools in easy reach and get organized for all of the tasks that gardening demands.

Most of you have a hobby of gardening, but you do not have enough space for vegetable gardens, patio planters, or flower beds. If you still want to do gardening, then opt for an indoor garden.

For many people, starting gardening might be part of their annual goals. Others might have a great space in their backyard they’d like to start with. And yet others might just have extra time available to start a new hobby. Whatever the case, if you are looking for a reason to start a garden, perhaps now is time to start digging a little deeper.

Maintaining a healthy lawn requires considerable effort and time. But not doing so also comes with serious consequences, such as lowering your property’s value or putting your kids and pets at risk. As much as possible, neglecting your lawn should in no way be an option, no matter the amount of work is involved.
