Speak Out: When Is It OK to Do Yardwork on the Weekends?

In the movie LA Story, Victoria Tennant's character, newly arrived from England to Los Angeles, asks Steve Martin's character when the right time for low, sustained booming noises is in LA.

His reply? “Low, sustained booming noises? 9:00am, 9:15am?”

He later discovers that she plays the tuba.

Now that spring has arrived, many people will be working on their yards and gardens on the weekends.

But for many others, especially those who work late hours, weekends are a chance to catch up on sleep.

I don't mind neighbors firing up their lawn mowers, weed whackers or leaf blowers...but I do mind when they do it at 7:30 in the morning.

I understand wanting to avoid doing the work in the heat of the day, but some people jump the gun.

Speak Out: What do you think is an acceptable time to start doing yard work? When is too early? What are some of the lawn and garden projects you'll be tackling this season?

And if you're looking for someone to take over your lawn care, don't forget we recently rounded up some of the lawn care service providers in Easley,  Simpsonville, Greer and Taylors and Mauldin.
