April Gardening Tips
Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps eliminate a great
many pests that die from various causes while in the bag. When you buy
‘loose’ mulch that is trucked to your home, you are also buying ants,
roaches, termites, etc…” Spend a little more on bagged material and save
lots of future pest problems. Keep your mulch at least 4” - 6” below the top
of your homes exposed foundation edge/side. This will aid in minimizing
pests in your home and allow for quick and accurate termite inspections.
Shrubs, Flowers and ground covers - Trim all shrubs/plants at least 12” -
18” back from your home. Do your best to create a plant free zone that is
18” - 24” wide around your home. The exception is your lawn - it can grow
up next to the slab as long as you keep it 4” - 6” below the top of the slab.
The most conducive to termite infestation are groundcover plantings,
growing high against your homes exterior or (especially) ivy that grows
on your walls.
Trees - Spray your trees at least twice annually. The spring spray
eliminates overwintering pests and fungi while preparing trees to resist
the pest onslaught of summer with residual pesticides. The fall spray also
kills pests from the summer, prevents most fungi from occurring over the
winter and puts your valuable asset off to a healthy winter’s dormancy.
Lawn - Spring is the perfect time to do a fungicide treatment to stop
brown patch in its tracks along with other fungi. If your lawn is thin and
weak in some areas, here are some important fundamentals: a) lawn
aeration” b) fertilization” c) weed control.
Most important is proper watering:
• Water once per week (unless you get a 1/2” rain or more - then do not
water.)
• Water heavily (1” - 2”) for total lawn coverage.
• In severe drought, water every 5th day.
• Water from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT.
• A heavy deep weekly watering makes the turf grow deeper, stronger
and more drought resistant roots.
• Less watering also saves you money!!
WHEN IS EARTH DAY?
This observance always falls on April 22 nd . On Earth Day, enjoy the tonic
of fresh air, contact with the soil and companionship with nature! Walk
through the woods in search of emerging wildflowers and green moss.
Go outside, no matter what the weather!
Ever wondered how Earth Day started? This observance arose from an
interest in gathering national support for environmental issues. In 1970,
San Francisco activist John McConnell and Wisconsin Senator Gaylord
Nelson separately asked Americans to join in a grassroots demonstration.
McConnell chose the spring equinox (March 21, 1970) and Nelson chose
April 22 nd . Millions of people participated and today Earth Day continues
to be widely celebrated with events on both dates.
The most common practice of celebration is to plant new trees for Earth
Day. Other Earth Day activities and ideas are: Plant wildflowers, Go
native! Plants thrive when they’re natural to your area, bring nature into
the garden with plants that attract butterflies, try an organic vegetable
garden and conserve water.

Sudden Changes To Their Environment. A sudden change in the
surrounding environment may affect a person with autism. The could be
a loud noise, a change in intensity of lighting or even a change in smell.
Speech. Speech can be affected in people with autism. ‘Echolalia’ is a
typical speech symptom in which the person repeats words and phrases
that they hear. The speech tone of an autistic person may be monotonous.
Where symptoms are more extreme, the person may not speak.
The first National Autism Awareness Month was declared by the Autism
Society in April 1970. The aim of this month is educate the public about
autism. Autism is a complex mental condition and developmental
disability, characterized by difficulties in the way a person communicates
and interacts with other people. Autism can be be present from birth or
form during early childhood (typically within the first three years). Autism
is a lifelong developmental disability with no single known cause. People
with autism are classed as having Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
and the terms autism and ASD are often used interchangeably. A wide
spectrum disorder, people will autism have set of symptoms unique to
themselves, no two people are the same.
Increasing Awareness About The Common Characteristics Of Autism
Whilst no two people with autism will have the same set of symptoms,
there are common characteristics found in those with this complex
disability. Briefly, these characteristics include: Social Skills. People with
autism have problems interacting with others; autistic children do not
have adequate playing and talking skills. Mild symptoms on one end of
the spectrum may be displayed through clumsy behavior, being out of
sync with those around them and inappropriate or offensive comments
being made. At the other end of the spectrum an autistic person may not
be interested in others.
Empathy. Empathy is the ability to recognize and understand the feelings
of another person. People with autism find it harder to show empathy to
others although they can be taught to acknowledge the others feelings.
Physical Contact. In some cases, autistic people do not like physical
contact such as hugs, tickling or physical play with others.
Changes To Behavior and Routine. People with autism often display
repetitive behavior in which they repeat the same action many times
over. For example, a person with autism may repeatedly pace around a
room in a certain direction. Any change to their behavior or routine can
be unsettling for them. This could be a reordering of daily activities such
as when a person brushes their teeth, takes a shower and has breakfast
when they get up in the morning. Other characteristics of autism include
an unpredictable learning rate, obsessions and physical tics.
Autism Is Widespread, Awareness About This Condition Is Not
In the United States, autism affects 1 in every 110 children. National
Autism Awareness Month aims to make the public more aware about this
widespread disability and the issues which arise in the autism community.
As about 1 in 150 people in America have autism, the chances are that
you know someone with this disability. A better informed public will be
more empathetic and supportive towards people with autism.
This month is backed by the Autism Society of America ,which undertake
a number of activities to raise awareness about autism. The Autism
Society has local chapters throughout the United States, which hold
special events throughout April. The ‘Puzzle Ribbon’ is the symbol for
Autism Awareness and is promoted by the Autism Society as means of
supporting awareness for autism. The Puzzle Ribbon may take the form of
a pin attached to clothing, a fridge magnet or a sticker and are available
to purchase from the Autism Society website.
The Autism Society of America also run a year long campaign through
their 1 Power 4 Autism initiative, in which people are encouraged to hold
events to raise awareness and support for those affected by autism. For
more information on National Autism Awareness Month visit the Austism
Society’s Awareness Page.
