SOLUTIONS
DON´T WASTE WATER1. Never water your lawn or garden in
the rain... let Mother Nature take care of it for you.
2. Never allow a sprinkler to water a sidewalk, driveway or road... ensure you water only the lawn and garden.
3. Never over water a lawn, garden or outdoor plant so there is water pooling or running off... use the soak and cycle technique - water one area for 15 minutes then move on to another.
4. Never have a pond or fountain which does not recirculate water... install a circulating pump.
5. Never wash your vehicle with a flowing hose... use a hose equipped with a shut-off nozzle.
6. Never wash a driveway clean with water... use a broom and sweep.
