The Oasis Lawn & Tree Care Blog

Having a thick, green lawn is important to many Ohio homeowners. A great lawn isn’t all about making your neighbors green with envy. A gorgeous lawn increases a home’s value and is also good for the environment, improving air quality in your neighborhood.

One of the keys to maintaining beautiful turf is a lawn care program that focuses on  soil health and preventative solutions for common lawn problems.

Before jumping in and hiring just any lawn care professional, many people want to know, “on average, how much does lawn care cost?” Your annual investment in lawn care is influenced by a variety of different factors.

Weeds!  These pesky lawn invaders can surface at different times throughout the year and, if not properly controlled, weeds can ruin the appearance of even the nicest yard.  It’s difficult to enjoy your time on your lawn if you have to look at unsightly weeds.

And whether it’s a few weeds or what seems like an army of them, they are more than an eyesore—weeds can choke out the healthy turf you worked so hard to nurture.  At that point, you know you need a solution to rid your yard of these unwelcome intruders.

Mosquitoes, just hearing the word makes you begin to itch. Your backyard should be a relaxing place after a hard day’s work, but the last word that anyone would use to describe a mosquito-infested backyard is “relaxing.”

Are mosquitoes anything but a nuisance? Are there real health risks? Is there anything that can be done to get rid of mosquitoes on your Cincinnati property, and what’s the best way to safely protect you and your family?

When you’re at a place where you need to cancel your lawn service, (whatever the reasons may be) you might be feeling frustrated. Not only do you need to go through the process of canceling (which you might not be totally sure how to handle), but you might then have to go about looking for another lawn care service.

We know you love your trees. You enjoy them as a place of respite—to sit underneath and read a book, have a picnic lunch with the kids, or set up your hammock for a nap.  

You appreciate the shade your trees provide when you’re sitting on your patio. You relish their aesthetic appeal, watching them change colors throughout the seasons. Without your trees and shrubs, you realize your property wouldn’t be the same.

If you have a lawn that isn’t looking too great, you might be wondering about the best time to fix a lawn. That is, what makes sense to do now—and what can (or should) wait. After all, if you’re considering investing in a professional lawn care service in Cincinnati, Dayton, OH, or Northern Kentucky, it’s important to you make sure that you are investing wisely.

First and foremost, we commend you for your quest to understand the best time to repair a lawn. You are wise to contemplate timing as lawn care really is all about the proper timing.

When it comes to your lawn care and the treatments you may need, you need a professional you can trust. The average person doesn’t know much about the chemistry of lawn care and must often put their trust in a lawn care professional’s hands. But knowing who you can trust may be an intimidating decision.

When it comes to getting great lawn care results, you want what’s best for your lawn. However, you don’t want to pay for treatments that you don’t actually need. 

While a lot of people assume that trees are self-sustaining, the truth is they require regular care if you truly want them to be the best they can be.

Trees in urban and suburban environments are under a lot more stress than trees of the forest where nutrients are readily available. In a forest, fallen leaves naturally decompose and provide a nutrient rich soil which is moist from ample shade, and without the competition of turfgrasses.

Grassy weeds are one of the biggest nuisances that homeowners face. They seemingly pop up out of nowhere, spread rapidly, and can be difficult to control.
