MS4 Spring
  • Plant native plants:  Native plants provide biodiversity and require less maintenance and water to thrive.  See PA Department of Agriculture for native plant suggestions. 
  • Mulch your grass clippings:  Grass clippings are a source of nitrogen fertilizer. Let them decompose on your lawn and never blow them into the street.
  • Use chemicals sparingly:  When spreading fertilizer, use it sparingly to ensure the excess does not overflow into runoff when rain comes.
  • Pick up pet waste:  Pick up, bag, and dispose of pet waste properly to prevent unhealthy bacteria from flowing into local waterways.
