Hi all,
We bought a house in Baltimore almost a year ago. The house had not been well kept (the owner had died for quite a while) and there were patches of dying grass and ivy. We pulled out all the ivy (lots of work!), left the ground baking in the summer sun and recently put top soil on the bare ground and put Scott's PatchMaster mix from Home Depot. The grass has been growing well.
Now the reason I am writing this is because the neighbor just told us that they have bugs in their windows (small silvery bugs according to them) and they had to get an exterminator to their house. The exterminator asked them if they recently planted new grass, and they told him that they didn't but of course their neighbor did. The exterminator told them that some bugs may result from planting new grass.
So my questions are:
- Is the theory true (bugs from new grass), and does it apply also for PatchMaster + top soil that we did.
- Everything is hunky dory in our house (which is separated by some
Many thanks for any comment.
