All Purpose Landscaping COS

One of the best parts about May is finally seeing flowers and plants in bloom. But before they're ready to be enjoyed by you or your neighbors, there are a few things that need attention. Start with fertilizing and planting them now so they'll grow nice for this month! Don't forget yard maintenance too. Mowing grass or trimming shrubs are important and without proper irrigation plants can dry out. Be on the lookout for insects as well.

Common Garden Pests in Colorado (and How to Manage Them)

WHITEFLIES
These tiny winged insects hang out in clusters underneath leaves. Somewhat triangular, they’re active during the daytime. They like tomatoes and bell peppers, so check these plant leaves carefully and often.

How to get rid of them
-Spray a mixture of dishwashing liquid and water early in the morning or late in the day. A good sq**rt of soap into a gallon of water is the right ratio.
-Use a handheld vacuum every few days to remove them from your plants.
