Oh, yes. No lawns in that neighborhood but I thought hard about what might be going into the fruits. Years on, no ill effects.

- phsau 2y agoWouldn't it be better to keep the tree and its roots away from the drain? That growth might come at significant cost!
- pfdietz 2y agoFertilizer would be welcome, pesticides less so. Fortunately, one doesn't really need pesticides on lawns, particularly if one doesn't have a dislike of non-grass species (like clover, which helps with fertilizing anyway).
- cmiller1 2y agoNot uncommon for people to have their lawns treated for ticks here in the NE US
- pfdietz 2y agoI live in a very high tick area in upstate NY, and I've never seen this. I certainly don't do it and have had no problems. Now, if I wander just off the lawn into the woods, I better be wearing my permethrin clothes.
- JohnFen 2y ago> Fertilizer would be welcome That might depend on where you are. In my part of the US, fertilizer runoff is causing very serious problems. This is mostly from farms, of course, but domestic lawn care is a major source as well. The push around here isn't to get people to stop using it entirely, but to follow proper practices that minimize the runoff.
