CA Wildfire & Forest Resilience Task Force’s Post

The map shows that much of the UK, particularly southern England, experienced significantly below-average rainfall during July 2026, increasing the risk of dry, compacted turf and moisture stress. Regular aeration and thatch removal help improve water infiltration, reduce soil compaction, encourage deeper root growth and increase the turf's resilience to prolonged dry conditions. Those that are regularly scarifying and aerating are seeing the benefits!

County amends land use code for wildfire mitigation. Amendment will comply with Colorado Wildfire Resiliency Code standards for building materials, setbacks and vegetation. 📸: Courtesy Photo https://lnkd.in/gGw-Bu5k #telluride #telluridenews #telluridetimes #news #telluridelife #telluridetoday #visittelluride #telluridecolorado #localnews #inthenews #telluridecommunity #supportlocal #newsupdate #tellurideinsider #tellurideskiresort #wildfire

Most turf owners only clean what they can see. The real problems happen underneath the surface. The 5-step process: 1. Inspect high-traffic areas. 2. Remove debris. 3. Lift the turf fibers. 4. Correct compacted infill. 5. Treat the base with the right enzyme cleaner. Skip one step, and odors, poor drainage, and premature wear can come right back.

Clean Streets = Cleaner Waters What gets left on the street doesn’t always stay there. Dirt, sediment, leaves, litter, and other debris can get picked up by the next storm and carried into storm drains and local waterways. That’s why street sweeping is about more than keeping roads looking clean. Removing that material before the rain reaches it is a practical way for communities to help reduce what enters the stormwater system. Clean streets. Cleaner water. It really is connected. We’ll be talking more about the Clean Streets = Cleaner Waters initiative at PWX 2026 in Houston. Stop by Booth 2555 and talk with the 1-800-SWEEPER team about the role power sweeping can play in stormwater management. #1800SWEEPER #Morethananumber #cleanstreets #cleanerwaters #stormwater

As concern for wildfires grows, PSREC continues to enhance its historic preventative program, including vegetation management and proactive equipment maintenance that considers wildfire risk. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/e-Tfz2xZ.

BC is heading into a dangerous heat peak, and wildfire crews are warning that new starts could happen fast. More smoke. More closures. More uncertainty. Here’s the part we don’t talk about enough. Wildfires are no longer a seasonal disruption. They are becoming one of the biggest operational risks in Canadian logistics. Every year the fires get hotter, the closures get longer and the impact on freight gets bigger. Highways shut down. Rail lines pause. Trucks reroute for hours. And shippers expect us to keep everything moving like nothing changed. So here’s the question for our industry: Are we treating climate pressure as a real supply chain threat, or are we still reacting to it like a temporary inconvenience? https://lnkd.in/gZ2pdiUx

Did you know? The average cost to clean up after a residential pigeon infestation is $2,000-$5,000, but professional prevention can cost a fraction of that. An ounce of prevention saves thousands! 💡 For property managers and facility owners in Arizona, pigeon activity is more than a nuisance—it's a significant liability. But why does remediation cost so much? Here is the breakdown of what uncontrolled pigeon infestations do to commercial and residential properties: ** Corrosive Damage: Pigeon guano is highly acidic and will rapidly degrade roofing materials, solar panel wiring, and HVAC systems. ** Biohazard Cleanup: Safe removal requires specialized enzymatic disinfectants, pressure washing, and strict safety protocols to prevent health risks like Histoplasmosis. ** Secondary Pest Infestations: Bird nests attract bird mites, ticks, and other secondary pests that require additional extermination. The Solution: Proactive exclusion. Installing high-quality physical barriers—such as UV-resistant Pigeon Netting, low-profile Electrical Bird Shock Tracks, or Stainless Steel Bird Spikes—stops the problem before nesting begins. Protect your property value and your operating budget. Pigeon Control Phoenix has been Arizona's hometown exterminator for over three generations, providing humane, 100% effective bird control solutions.

🔥🐂 Sometimes the biggest difference in a wildfire isn't the weather—it's the grass. Former firefighter, Paul Dennison, who responded to the Marshall Fire witnessed firsthand how fire behavior changed when flames moved from unmanaged grasslands into grazed pastures. Research continues to support what many ranchers have long understood: managing grass through prescribed grazing can influence how a fire burns. Shorter, less dense grass can help reduce fire intensity and slow the rate of spread. Cattle do more than produce high-quality beef—they're also part of the stewardship that helps care for working landscapes and the communities that surround them. 🌾🤠 #ColoradoBeef #MarshallFire #WorkingLands #ColoradoRanching #LandStewardship #RangelandManagement

Think the "big box" pest plan is enough because it's the same product in every ZIP code? Here's what we see: pests don't enter like a coupon. Western Pennsylvania homes get their own mix of gaps, moisture, landscaping contact points, and garage/foundation seams. A standardized script can't account for what's actually happening at your house. That's why we're owner-led and built around what we find on your walkthrough, then you get a clear, honest next step.
