You might have an outbreak of MEALY BUG!

Mealy Bugs are small sap-sucking pests that are often found in warmer climates. They are soft-bodied, wingless and are covered in white, protective wax and leave behind dry looking, damaged grass blades. They produce Honeydew which can cause mould growth on plants, attracts other pests, and can prevent your grass from photosynthesizing. They tend to hide in the moist and protected parts of a plant, usually the dense foliage or underside of leaves, and can have the appearance of small spots of cotton.

Mealy Bugs reach maturity within 1-3 months of hatching, and adult females can lay 300-600 eggs which will hatch within 1-3 weeks. If these pests aren’t taken care of quickly, they can overrun your lawn!

SO, WHAT CAN YOU DO?

Option 1. Mealy Bugs are hard to eradicate, generally needing to be manually removed with rubbing alcohol from each blade of grass. This daunting task could take days or weeks depending on your yard size.

Option 2 Jump on Doctor Google and research old wife’s tales on ‘How Do I Kill Mealy Bug’ just to find the hundreds of different products you ‘could’ use to eradicate them.

It’s important to create a balance between DIY projects and those that should be left to the pros when it comes to updating your home. While you can do a lot of things on your own, some home improvements require specialized skills and knowledge. In this post, we’ll look at some of the most popular remodelling projects that you might want to leave to the professionals.

You must hire a qualified contractor or structural engineer if you plan to make structural alterations to your house, such as knocking down walls or adding on.

A qualified plumber has the knowledge and equipment required to complete any work, whether it be installing a new bathroom, moving pipes, or fixing a sewage line. It is advisable to seek the assistance of a professional because doing sophisticated plumbing work without the right training might result in expensive errors and possible water damage. You can make sure that your plumbing system runs efficiently, eliminating future leaks and the need for additional repairs or the possibility of future electrical issues.

It is advisable to leave tasks like siding replacement and roof repairs to qualified contractors. Your house’s roof and siding offer essential protection from the elements, and any mistakes made during installation or maintenance can result in leaks, mould, or interior damage. The materials will be installed correctly, the proper weatherproofing precautions will be taken, and the work will be finished to a high degree if you hire a renowned roofing and siding firm. Professional contractors have the knowledge and expertise needed to spot requirements, assuring correct installation, and maximizing energy efficiency. You may enjoy a comfortable home atmosphere while lowering your energy expenditures and environmental impact by hiring experts to replace your system.
