Clean Up the Yard

Rake up all the leaves and other debris where insects might be lurking – especially around the foundation of your house. Also clear out window wells and storm drains. Trim back any overgrown shrubs near your house. Inspect your trees for winter damage. Remove broken branches if you can easily reach them; otherwise, hire a licensed arborist.

Get going on lawn and garden care now, and make plans for a summer vegetable garden.
