WSG Termite Inspections on September 27

Pest & Termite Consultants will be conducting annual termite inspections on Tuesday, September 27 from 8:00am until 4:00pm. The inspection is absolutely necessary to ensure that we eradicate and minimize the destructive nature of these pests.  Termites can destroy the structural integrity of your home/unit if not detected and properly treated.

The inspector will need access to crawlspaces and interior of garages.

The procedure to get your home inspected is available at this link:   Inspection Procedure

Pruning Postponed

While the pruning of bushes, shrubs, and Holly Trees on private property had been planned to start at the end of July, in consultation Wednesday with Ruppert Landscape, they strongly advised that such pruning be postponed until the weather cools substantially – e.g., day temps in the low 80s and night temperatures in the mid-to-upper 50s or low 60s. 

Due to the past and continuing heat wave in our area, if pruning were to be done now it could compromise or kill bushes and shrubs. And, that is not the result we wish for since each of us has put a great deal of hard work into keeping our garden areas beautiful.

Please keep the tape with a neighbor so that it can be reapplied when pruning is rescheduled.

As soon as Ruppert suggests an appropriate time, a new Notice will be posted on the WSG website and via email.

With sincere apologies for any inconvenience this has caused.

Thank you. The Landscape Committee, David Piet – Chair

Pruning of Bushes, Shrubs and Holly Trees

Pruning of bushes, shrubs, and holly trees on private property will begin starting next week – July 27 (weather permitting) – on a Close-by-Close basis.  Please use colored tape to identify any plants you DO NOT want Ruppert to prune. Tapes will be placed on benches in each Close this weekend so that you can prepare. Once property has been pruned, please remove the tape from plants.

Thank you.

RUPPERT LANDSCAPE TO EDGE AND MULCH BEDS

Starting the end of February Ruppert Landscape will begin its spring to fall regular maintenance in WSG starting with edging and mulching.   February 25 – 28, 2022: edging and mulching of beds on private property (up to the HVAC system) and Common Areas.  Edging will precede mulching and will take several days to complete.  Triple Shred dark mulch will again be used.

Starting in March, weather permitting, these visits are regularly scheduled for Wednesdays each week.  If Ruppert cannot come to WSG on a particular Wednesday, the crew will try to come the next day.
