How do we get a tick tested for lymes disease?

I planted small rhodis in the spring and they have done well. Now the bottom half of two look droopy. The soil seems moist around them. I read that rhodis should be watered in late fall to see them through until spring but I hesitate to water them for fear of killing them with too much water. Help!

Can you tell me what this is? Found by my back door next to house. Never seen this before. They are about the size of loin mein noodle and spaghetti noodle. Looks like Cheetos but tiny. Some about inch long, others shorter. Eggs are whiteish. Did not see anything around them. Your help is appreciated!

I have a prolific rose tree I just planted this spring. What is the best way to protect it (Northern exposure in St Paul) to over winter? Any best materials to help it survive/thrive? Thank you much!

https://www.purduelandscapereport.org/article/horned-oak-galls-can-make-a-mess-out-of-pin-and-related-oaks/ I found this site that might be relevant, but I don't even know if these are oaks or not. I was surveying the damage from a heavy snow yesterday that took down some trees when I noticed that I have about half a dozen large trees infected with hundreds of golfball sized black galls. Without leaves I can't be sure what they are. They're between 30 and 60 feet tall. I'd like to know what they are, and whether it's necessary to cut these trees down to prevent spread.

Can you effectively kill off grubs in my lawn right now? Something has tore up my yard. I'm guessing for Grubs.

I am remodeling my basement in Eldersburg. The basement of our rancher has a 2 car garage on one end, then you can proceed from the garage into the living space. I was tearing insulation out of the wall between the garage and the living space and found this mound of small droppings. I reached out to my local pest service and they could not identify the droppings. They referred me to you all for possible identification. The dropping has a shiny sheen to it and sounded like beads hitting the floor as they fell out. Any identification or advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I cleared black berry under mature big leaf maple trees and other areas on my 2 acres and I want to plant grass seed. Is now the time to spread grass seed and what verity should I buy?

While I was out of town 2 Cages of finches died. Other cages of birds were fine. I don't know if my pet sitter is to blame or if it could be the flu. I'm talking about 50 birds. Thoughts?
