\u201cThis has been the longest spring break of my life,\u201d says Wanda, a mother of two elementary-school aged boys in the Plymouth area. \u201cIt\u2019s nice the kids have a break from schoolwork, but all they want to do is play on the computer all day long. It\u2019s gotten out of hand. When I was a kid, I couldn\u2019t wait to get up and go play outside. But they have no interest in it at all. What can I do?\u201d<\/p>\n
The goal of less screen time and more sunshine is one many Plymouth parents share. The first step in making it happen is to go outside and take a serious, objective look at your lawn. Is it a place you\u2019d like to hang out and play? No kid needs a Pinterest-perfect environment in order to have a good time, but you do want a yard that\u2019s got nice green grass, free from bare patches & spiky, thorny weeds. Outdoor activity can tend to be on the rough and tumble side: a lush lawn means your kids land on soft grass rather than the hard ground!<\/p>\n
Another issue to think about is mosquitoes and ticks. Do you like being bitten by annoying insects? Your kids don\u2019t either! Add in the fact that pests carry some very scary diseases, including the Zika virus, Lyme Disease and more, and it\u2019s easy to see why a buggy lawn is no place anyone wants to be.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s what to do if your lawn isn\u2019t so great or you\u2019ve got an excessive amount of ticks and mosquitoes in your yard: call your Plymouth lawn service. There are kid-friendly, chemical free solutions to these problems. Now is really the time to take action if you want great grass: not only can your Plymouth lawn service handle all the planting for you, they take care of the mowing and trimming. That means all the time you spend in the yard with your kids can be playtime, not work time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
