As we celebrate this day of freedom and fun, we want to remind everyone to stay safe while enjoying time with family and friends:
☀️ Don’t forget your sunscreen — reapply often, especially if you’re spending the day outside!
💧 Stay hydrated — drink plenty of water throughout the day to beat the heat.
🎆 Leave the fireworks to the professionals — please don’t play with fireworks at home. Your safety and your neighbors’ peace of mind are worth it!

Our office is closed today so our staff can enjoy the holiday too, but we’ll reopen with normal hours on Monday.

Have a wonderful Independence Day! ❤️💙

Tick season is here, and ticks can carry diseases that can cause serious illness and sometimes death if left untreated. Take the following precautions to prevent tick bites:

✔️ Mow regularly
✔️ Avoid wooded or bushy areas with tall grass and leaf litter
✔️ Use repellents like DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus
✔️ Wear light-colored clothing that covers the body
✔️ Check people, pets, and outdoor gear after being outside
✔️ Shower within 2 hours of being outside
✔️ Wash clothes in hot water and/or dry on high at least 10 min.

Symptoms of tick-borne disease can include any unusual rash or unexplained flu-like symptoms, including fever, severe headaches, body aches, and dizziness. See your doctor immediately if you have been bitten and experience any of these symptoms.
