We removed 2 Bradford pear trees but we cannot get rid of the hundreds of suckers/sprouts that are popping up in the lawn. We tried pulling them out but there are hundreds. What can we do to kill these without damaging our lawn?

I have been using predatory mites to control a spider mite infestation. 1. What happens to Phytoseiulus after they eat all of the spider mites? 2. Do Phytoseiulus spin webs?

Hello, Golf courses seem to water the grass every day. However, it was recommended here (https://extension.umd.edu/resource/watering-lawns/) to water on an as needed basis. Why the difference? When I look at peoples lawns in my neighborhood, it appears to me that anyone who waters their lawn regularly has a better looking lawn than mine. The top growth has greener and thicker leaves. And knowing that I have to run my impact sprinkler for 10-18 hours to get ~1" on an ~4000 sqft area, I can only imagine no one's watering "deep". Any idea what might be going on? Thanks! Eddie

Hi, Can you identify the plant in the photo? Also, I have a large heavy area of brush, mostly honeysuckle approx 30 ft in diameter. There is a lot of weathered twigs and dried weeds on the ground surface of it. I want to get it cut down and cleared for a flower garden area. Would it be better to wait until fall in case their is any wildlife or birds inhabiting the area? Thank you

To Whom it may concern: Can and will the department identify a bug for an every citizen at no cost. My bedroom is being swarmed by what looks like flying ants. They show up at 8pm almost like clock work. I suffer from migraines, so I cannot use a spray. I tried repelling them with Citronella oli, but it seemed not to work. What I am doing now is squirting them with dishwashing liquid when they land on my bed. They are surprisingly attracted to my laptop which I keep on my mattress. I captured and killed 6 on Tuesday and 7 on Monday. I think they first appeared on Sunday evening. I believe the ones I am killing might be scouts because after I kill a few, they stop arriving. I believe they might be hatchlings because a saw a large one that looked the version. On the day they appeared, I was bitten by a venomous insect which might have been a spider which, if so, means I was double ganged. I suffered painful stiffness the site of the bite. I hurt like H.ll whenever I moved my neck.. I used Flexeril to relax the muscle. I has almost cleared up. I was going to go the the ER today if it hadn't. Knowing the ID of the bug could help bring them under control and eradicat them. Thank for reading my appeal.

Please help me identify what has been wreaking havoc on my tree.

What are the names of these

Are there any methods for driving the pigeons away? I quit feeding the desirable birds in hopes that the pigeons would move on. It seems that their numbers are smaller but I'd like them all to be gone. I miss the Cardinals and Blue Jays and all the birds. I may resort to trying to attract hummingbirds but they are not my first choice. I am also working on a pollinator garden.

Any suggestions on keeping field mice from eating my garden seeds? They ate all my melons, cukes, zucchini and most of my corn.
