Katonah, Westchester County

Lawn care and tick control built for Katonah yards

Katonah is a hamlet of Bedford wrapped by reservoir land, Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, and miles of stone walls. Lots are wooded, often rocky, and the deer population is among the highest in the county.

A Katonah yard is usually a clearing in the woods. Keeping the lawn part healthy and the tick pressure down at its edges is the work, and the reservoir watershed means we are careful about what goes on the ground and when.

Katonah FAQs

Questions we hear from Katonah homeowners

Yes, when it is aimed at the right places. Ticks concentrate in the transition zone between lawn and woods, so treating that band, plus stone walls and leaf litter, reduces the ticks that reach the yard. Clearing brush and leaf litter helps too, and we will show you where.

Yes. Applications follow EPA label directions, buffers from water, and weather timing so products stay where they are applied.

Moss means shade, compaction, and low pH. Aeration, lime where soil tests call for it, and overseeding with fine fescue give the grass a chance. Where the canopy is too dense, we will say so.
