Luke's Lawn and Pest

About Luke's Lawn and Pest

April comes into Waterloo on a west wind carrying the smell of turned field soil, and the first green shows along the curbs before the trees have leafed out. Luke's Lawn and Pest is there for that opening mow and each one after, tending yards across this Douglas County village through the growing months. When the year turns hard and snow piles up between the houses, the same outfit clears it away. Two kinds of work, one kind of pride: a spring yard mowed neat and level, a winter walk scraped down to dry concrete. It's the sort of attention that lets a household stop worrying about the yard at all.
