Limit Fertilization*
- Use slow release or organic fertilizer only if needed, not to exceed 2 pounds of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet of yard per year. Do not fertilize within 20 feet of water.
Be Water Wise*
- Do not overwater. Sprinkle at dawn and dusk every other day. Stop watering when it’s raining. Raise the mower blade to a mow height of 3 to 4 inches so less water and fertilizer are needed.
Plant Natives & Maintain Streamside Buffers*
- Maintain a 5-foot buffer of unmanicured landscaping around water.
Use Herbicides and Pesticides Appropriately*
- Only apply herbicide for state and county listed noxious weeds, using spot spraying or mechanical removal techniques where appropriate.
If you hire a professional landscaping or lawncare company to care for your property, please provide their business name:
