Thaw week in mid-Michigan is not pretty. The snow pulls back in gray patches, the lawn lies flat and matted, and everything the winter hid is out in the open again. PSI - Poop Scoop International turns up for exactly that moment in Ionia, with the yard cleanup that makes a back lawn usable, then carries on through the season with mowing, trimming and edging. Fenced yards, worn corners, the narrow strip between two houses — those are the spaces that get skipped, and they are the ones worth doing right. Come autumn the leaves come off the same way, so the next spring starts a little kinder.
