Let’s control the mosquito population in Home Park!
Tips for Mosquito Control
Home Park neighbors can help the mosquito problem by collectively removing, covering and emptying containers that contain standing water. Most problematic mosquitos don’t typically fly far (100-300 yards) from their larval habitats, so this is a situation we can improve!
Check out these tips from the from the Georgia extension service and Montgomery County, MD to reduce mosquito populations in our community. 1. Remove old tires or drill holes in those used for playground equipment to allow them to drain. Tires are common larval habitats for several mosquitoes that bite humans and should not be stored outdoors. 2. Check tarps on boats or other equipment/items that may collect water in pockets or indentations. 3. Remove vegetation or obstructions in drainage ditches that prevent the flow of water. 4. Pick up broken, unused or discarded toys that hold water. 5. Pick up all beverage containers and cups. 6. Replace water in birdbaths once a week. 7. Replace water in pet and other animal feeding dishes or troughs at least once a week. 8. Fill tree holes (hardwood trees) that hold water with spray, insulating foam sealant. 9. Position garbage cans and lids so they don’t hold water.

Trees Atlanta Interested in PlantingTrees in Home Park
Hello Home Park Neighbors, Trees Atlanta recently reached out to us and they are interested in planting trees in Home Park! Using funds from the city and elbow grease from volunteers, they plant trees along sidewalks, in parks, and even in your own front yard (if you’d like) completely for free.
In a recent audit of our canopy, they noted that State Street has a lot of sun exposure and not many trees planted in the right of way and felt it could benefit from more trees. They are interested in planting trees along State Street, and anywhere else in Home Park we feel we need more trees. They can plant in the right-of-way or on your property. And they will choose species of trees that are site appropriate and will not interfere with sidewalks or power lines to ensure the trees will live long healthy lives in our community. They can even cut concrete in some circumstances to create new sites for trees!
