Oak Worms and Miscellany

Today, I read a couple of great lawn and garden posts.

The first, is about the tiny worms that are as I type dropping out of pin oaks. Well, not all pin oaks, but enough pin oaks that I felt it was a good idea to post about this creature: gall midge larvae.

These tiny worms are not harmful to their hosts, so it the best approach is just to wait them out. Read Dennis Patton's explanation here.

Secondly, one of our route managers recently posted the answer to some lawn and garden questions on her blog Trophy Wife: Ask Lawn Boy. *Most* of the questions are germane to our topic, so feel free to check out her blog if you are interested in:

Planting Easter Lilies Outside
Keeping Weeds Out of Your Lawn or
Putting Miracle Grow around your Shrubs

Along these lines feel free to post questions in the comments section of any post and we will be sure to respond!

Easter Lily. You can plant them outside.
