Storm Debris Cleared Before Mosquito Season Hit
After weeks of heavy spring rains in 2014, soggy branches, mud-caked yard waste, and broken fencing piled up along the back edges of Millbrook properties. The damp debris created stagnant puddles and blocked drainage ditches, filling the air with that wet-rot smell neighbors couldn’t ignore. With summer approaching, residents worried about standing water becoming a breeding ground for mosquitoes and worsening local flooding during future downpours.
We rolled in two 20-yard containers within 24 hours and cleared overgrown brush, soggy drywall, and storm-tossed fencing from five affected lots. Our crew used compact track loaders to navigate tight side yards without tearing up sod, then hauled everything to an approved Elmore County disposal site. Within days, drainage paths were restored, and the neighborhood association reported no standing water during the next rain event.
They showed up fast, worked clean, and got rid of every soggy branch—we finally stopped swatting mosquitoes on our porch.
