Yeah, long grass is also good shelter for mosquitoes. =20

I don=E2=80=99t get having extensive lawns when there are other choices, =
but it does seem prudent to keep commonly-traveled areas cut.

I notice one neighbour brings in a sheep every couple of weeks.

Hi All,
It should also be pointed out that there is a very serious Lyme Disease =
outbreak here in Western Nova Scotia. Public health officials are =
telling people to mow their lawns as a first line of defense against =
Lyme Disease. Any discussion of this approach should probably deal with =
the question of minimizing exposure to Black-legged Ticks.

Hi Nancy,
=20
If you=E2=80=99re going to try this in an Urban or even village setting, =
verify that there aren=E2=80=99t bylaws written preventing a =
=E2=80=98wild=E2=80=99 lawn. Fighting city hall and ignoring a bylaw =
officer on the issue can result in a city crew descending on your yard =
and imposing a =E2=80=98groomed=E2=80=99 look. You can be left holding =
an industrial sized bill and a yard that looks like a soya field after =
harvest. Fortunately such bylaws are not universal.
=20
All the best and good luck with your mini-meadow project,

This is exactly what I am looking for but, unfortunately, I am in =

Will someone be filming or taping this presentation? It will be =

"how-to" piece on letting your lawn grow wild as many people want to do =
this but don't know how to begin or when to cut or mow - perhaps once a =
