INTRODUCTION
Belterra is a master planned, mixed-use community of MAK FOSTER RANCH, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership, located within the extratemtorial jurisdiction of the City of
Dripping Springs and in Hays County, Texas. These guidelines are intended to provide for
a uniform standard of quality and design in order to preserve and enhance the orderly
development, use and enjoyment of the community for its owners and occupants.
Project Description
Belterra encompasses more than 1,600 acres and has been planned to include a broad range
of residential development in a coordinated suburban setting and a conceptual community
plan is attached to these Guidelines as Schedule 1. The conceptual plan is a dynamic
document subject to refinement and modification by the Developer as project development
occurs, and the Developer reserves the full right to amend its development plans and
approvals for Belterra at its sole election and for its own purposes, and neither the
conceptual plan attached to these Guidelines nor any other no plan(s) or plat(s) or public
approval(s) at any time existing or described or depicted in sales literature or otherwise
for Belterra is intended to or shall constitute a final undertaking, representation or
commitment by the Developer to any person.
As of the date of adoption of these Guidelines, the Developer intends that single-family
detached residences will be the dominant land use within Belterra planned residential
sections of varying lot sizes and configuration, and distinct price ranges. The street system,

landscaping, walks and greenbelt areas of Belterra have been designed to be compatible with
the natural characteristics of the land and, in addition, to visually and functionally
interconnect the various sections of the community and to provide an integrated vehicular
and pedestrian network.
Intent of Guidelines
These Guidelines are intended to create a community standard of quality for allofBelterra,
and hereby are adopted by the Developer as the Design Guidelines for the Belterra
Homeowners' Association, Inc., a Texas non-profit corporation, and its New Construction
Committee (the "NCC"). These Guidelines apply only to single family residential lots in
Belterra, and are intended for the use of home builders and their engineering and
architectural professionals and contractors. Owners and builders are advised that these
Guidelines may not constitute all of the restrictions which may be imposed on a specific lot
or parcel of land in Belterra, and the Covenants, as well as all other community governing
documents, the deed of conveyance, the recorded subdivision plat and applicable purchase
and sale agreement, should be reviewed in detail.
Belterra is located within the
extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City of Dripping Springs, in Hays County and in various
taxing districts, and lots additionally are subject to all matters of record and all applicable
city and county agreements and requirements, law and ordinances.
It is the intent of the Developer to administer and apply these Guidelines fully and
completely in order that Belterra will be developed with a consistency of quality and design,
in accordance with prevailing industry standards. These Guidelines also, however, reserve
to the NCC flexibility in its review and approval authority, with the associated rights to grant
variances and waivers in order to balance competing development issues and priorities, and
to accommodate lot and section differences or avoid undo hardship.

Each lot in Belterra and its surrounding area shall be maintained during all periods of
construction in a neat, clean and orderly condition, subject to such container and disposal
requirements as from time to time may be specified by the NCC. Trash will be removed
from each lot weekly or as often as reasonably is required in order to maintain a neat, clean
and orderly
site. Construction debris, including excess concrete, may not be
burned, dumped or disposed of in any area of Belterra unless a specific location for such a
purpose in writing is approved by the NCC. Appropriate governmental agencies should be
contacted for erosion control and other NPDES permits. Covenants.
Sediment Control

homebuilder will protect existing grades and trees and vegetation. In addition, adjacent lots
and greenbelt areas will be protected by temporary four (4) foot orange safety fencing
installed along or parallel with appurtenant lot line lines prior to the commencement of lot
clearing. Homebuilders are responsible for the repair and/or replacement of grades,
landscaping, sidewalks, street lights, streets and any other improvements or property
damaged during construction.
Protection of Existing Trees
Successful preservation of trees and plant life relies on quality construction methods,
including the installation of protective barriers, root pruning, removal of dead, diseased or
obstructing branches, avoiding extreme grading and/or altering the drainage patterns,
avoiding soil compaction under driplines, and providing supplemental feeding and/or

HOUSING
V.
This section establishes basic requirements and criteria for home construction. Developer
emphasis is on quality in material, design and construction in order to promote well crafted
homes within the various communities of Belterra. These guidelines allow for diversity in
design, with an intent to produce a sense of individuality, while insuring architectural
integrity of the community as a whole.
Foundations
Prior to foundation construction, an area soils test should be undertaken to ensure
foundation quality.
•
Prior to foundation construction, a form survey should be undertaken to ensure that
building setback lines will not be violated.
•
All foundation plans must be signed and sealed by a Texas Registered Professional
Engineer. Minimum slab elevations are detennined by and should be coordinated
with the appropriate county agency.
•
Exposed foundations shall be limited to 12" height on front elevations, as well as all
other elevations facing streets. The height of exposed foundations is limited to 18"
on interior side elevations and 30" on rear elevations.
•
Exposed foundation should be minimized by dropping the masonry course. The
masonry ledge must extend around building corners a minimum of two (2) feet
before stepping up or down to a less restrictive foundation requirement. The step
up/down should relate to some architectural feature (such as lining up with a window
or change in wall direction).
•
Backfill around slab creating an unnatural finished grade condition is not a permitted
means to reduce exposed foundations and are not pennitted.
•
Masonry planters permissively may be used in front of exposed foundations for
visual screening. Planters must be of matching or compatible building material.
Exterior Materials
Single-family homes within production and custom neighborhoods of Belterra must be 100
percent masonry up to eaves (excluding pennitted facade and other architectural detailing),
except that:

Facade Design
•
Entrances to dwellings will be clearly defined, protected by a covered porch and
integrated with the building design.
•
The use of recessed windows and the expression of columns and beams that create
shadow and texture are encouraged to establish a sense of residential/pedestrian
scale.
•
Break up the elevations to provide shadow relief. Use recessed areas, offsets, etc. to
create interest. Consider offsets where roof lines change.
Window Treatment
•
Wood or metal windows may be used. When metal windows are used the finish shall
complement the color and architectural style of the house.
•
No reflective glass or glazing will be allowed on any front or side facade, or on any
facade which is visible from a public street or greenbelt area.
•
The use of wrought iron ornamentation on the exterior of any window is prohibited.
Roof Treatment; Materials
•
Roofing materials used on all homes will be no less than [to specify weight and
rating minimum], dimensional single, black, gray or approved neutral color. Three
high and wood shingles are prohibited.
•
A range of roofing tones and colors in sections is encouraged in order to avoid
monotony.
•
The use of alternate roofing materials (such as clay, slate, tile or metal) is limited to
estate lots, with the approval of the NCC, except, that, the use of such alternate
materials as an architectural element (i.e., over porches, on bay windows, etc.) is
permitted for all homes.
Chimneys
•
All fireplace chimneys located on the exterior of a dwelling shall be constructed of
masonry, hardiplank, stucco or approved substitute. Prefabricated metal fireplaces
and metal flues may be used, but chimneys will be masonry clad to appear as
traditional masonry chimneys.
•
All estate lot home chimneys will be constructed of masonry or stone.

Exposed Roof Metal
All exposed metal roof accessories, stack vents, roof flashing, attic ventilators, etc. shall
match roofing material color. All stack vents and attic ventilators shall be located on the rear
slopes of roofs and mounted perpendicular to the ground plate. In cases where metal roofing
is approved, roof accessories may be made of the same metal.
Skylights and Solar Collectors
The NCC will approve the location and design of all skylights and solar collectors. No solar
collectors will be allowed on any roof slope visible from a public street, corner lot or
greenbelt area
Rain Gutters and Drains
All roof systems will be designed with rain gutters and drains that will be integrated with the
architectural house design in color, size, shape and location. The use of a splash pad or
hidden drain pipe is required.
Garages
•
Garages may not exceed in height or number of stories the main dwelling on any lot.
•
Carports are prohibited.
•
All garages at a minimum will accommodate the storage of two (2) full size
automobiles at the same time. An extension in the width or length of a garage to
permit storage space may be submitted to the NCC for approval on a case-by-case
basis.
•
All garage doors should be of approved material and design, in a color to
complement the adjacent wall and trim.
•
Designs incorporating side or rear entry garages are encouraged to break up the
monotony of multiple garage doors facing the Street.
•
Windows may be required on the facade of side or rear loaded attached garages.
•
Setback of the garage from the facade of the house is encouraged to diminish the
effect of garages on the Street scene.
•
Detached garage exteriors must be constructed of the same materials and have the
same architectural style as the main dwelling.
•
Garages will be constructed as garages and will not be converted to living or working
space (with the exception of model homes).

corner lots will be oriented so that garages are located adjacent to the
interior lot property line (away from the street corner). Side entry garages on corner
lots will be placed at the side of the house opposite from the street corner.
Twin single garage doors are preferred to one large double door.
Designer-style garage doors are encouraged with the intent of giving the Street scene
more architectural interest.
Exterior Color Schemes
All exterior colors must be submitted to and approved by the NCC. The palette of exterior
colors for each residence will be selected to complement, coordinate or harmonize with the
colors of building materials used in their natural state, such as brick, stone, copper, etc. The
use of pastçl and primary colors, and red, orange and pink brick, is strongly discouraged and
may be used only by special approval of the NCC. Paints or stains should be limited to three
(3) complimentary colors per lot.
Pre-Wiring of Homes
All builders are required to pre-wire homes with Category 5 wiring.
Mechanical Equipment
All air conditioning compressors, power and meter boxes, and any other mechanical or
electrical devices and poo1 equipment, will be completely screened from public view by
appropriate fencing, decorative walls, landscaping or a combination of the foregoing. Plants
for landscaped screening will be no less than 3' in height upon installation in order to provide
immediate screening.

TURFGRASS
(6/26/00)
1.
Pests to be controlled: turfgrass weeds, diseases, and insects
2.
Integrated Pest Management (1PM) of turfgrass involves the use of multiple control tactics to keep
selected pests nelow an acceptable injury level. 1PM has a series of responsibilities, the primary one
being the proper identification and understanding of the pest. Selected pests are only those which
pose a threat to turf quality. Common turfgrass pests are weeds (including crabgrass, and dallisgrass),
diseases (including brown patch, dollar spot, and pythium blight), and insects (including fire ants,
webworms, and annywonns).
mole crickets,
The tactics included in this 1PM plan are: a.) physical, b.) cultural, c.) biological, and d.) chemical.
The goal of the 1PM plan is to emphasize the physical, cultural and biological tactics and minimize
chemical use, thereby lessening the effects on the hydrologic system.
•
3.
Life cycle of pests:
Crabgrass (Digitaria app.): Crabgrass is an annual grass spread primarily by seed and to a minor
extent by rooting from lower nodes. Crabgrass is a short, bunching,
grass, light green in
color. It is frequently found in over-watered turf and/or compacted soils.
b. Dallisgrass (Paspalum dilatatum): Dallisgrass is a warm-season annual grass. It is a coarsetextured, bunch-type grass that spreads primarily by seed. Lower leaves may be hairy, while all
are noticeably shiny. The seed stalks of dallisgrass are sparsely branched on long stems, and
contrast dramatically in desired turf.
c. Brown Patch (Rhizoctonia spp.): Brown patch is a fungal disease most likely to damage
bermudagrass and St. Augustinegrass in the spring or fall. Areas of turf affected with brown
patch consist of irregular brown areas that range from a few inches to many feet in diameter.
Environmental conditions that favor disease development are day temperatures above 85°F, high
relative humidity, and prolonged overcast wet periods. Excessive nitrogen fertilization and
frequent irrigation also favor development.
d. Dollar spot (Sclerotinia homoeocarpa): Dollar spot in turf consists of small circular areas about 2
inches in diameter, which are brown or straw in color. Moderate temperatures (60° to 80° F),
excess moisture and excess thatch lead to development of this disease, especially on closely cut
a.
e.
p
12
Pythium blight (Pythium spp.): Pythium blight kills turf in small irregular spots. The fungi
produce spores that survive for long periods in the soil, but develop rapidly with excessive
moisture. Blackened leaves of affected grasses wither rapidly and turn reddish brown. At high
temperatures, severe damage can occur in low areas of consistently wet turf.
f. Fire ants (Solenopsis invicta): The red imported fire ant is a tropical insect that was accidentally
introduced into the United States in the 1930's. Fire ants disperse naturally through mating
flights, which usually occur in the spring and fall. Fire ants are often moved in soil, sod, and
containerized plants. Fire ants do not attack turf, but cause problems when they build earthen
mounds for warming their eggs, larvae, and pupae. Mounds may be built in any turf situation.
Established colonies produce new queens and workers that, if left uncontrolled, will eventually
lead to large populations and additional mounds. Refer to the individual 1PM plan on fire ants for
specific control measures.
g. Mole crickets (Scapteriscus acletus): Mole crickets have grayish brown, velvety bodies with
broad spade-like front legs adapted for digging. Adults spend the winter in deep burrows. When
the soil warms, they move up to dig in grass and feed on turf insects. In the late spring and early
summer, mole crickets fly and mate. Females lay eggs in chambers beneath the soil. The eggs
hatch in May and June, with any tunneling caused by the young nymphs obvious by late July.

TURFCRASS
(6/26/00)
The most vulnerable stage of the mole cricket is the nymphal stage with earlier treatments
ineffective. Treatment will be made only if damage is noticeable and verified by a soap flush. A
proposed injury level is 3 nymphs per square feet.
h. Sod webworms (Crambus spp.): Sod webworms are the larval form of lawn moths. Larvae are
slender grayish, black-spotted caterpillars about 3/4 inch long. Adults are small and vary in color
from white to gray. Moths hide during the day, but after mating, drop their eggs over grass at
dusk. Eggs hatch in a few days and larvae begin to fee. They pupate in silken tunnels found in
the soil/thatch layer. There are 2-4 generations a year with the last spending the winter in the
larval stage. Grasses are most susceptible July through September. The presence of larvae is
verified by a soap flush with a proposed injury level set at 15 or more per square yard.
i. Armyworms (Psuedaletia spp.): Armywonns are the larval form of moths and thus have complete
life cycles with eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults. They are dull brown, tinged with red, and thickbodied. Adults fly at night and lay eggs at the base of grasses or nearby plants. Arrnyworms feed
at night, hiding in thatch during the day. Generations overlap, with as many as six generations a
year. The presence of armyworms is verified by soap flush with a proposed injury level set at 5
per square feet.
4. Control tactics:
Physical control tactics include simply removing the pests by hand, trapping, or mowing the
pests. Weeds can be physically removed with the help of hand-tools.
b. Cultural control tactics are those that maintain the quality of turfgrass by providing the best
possible growing conditions. These practices are constantly monitored, evaluated, and adjusted
for their direct effect on turf quality and the reduction of pest populations. To achieve quality turf
grass, and minimize the need for synthetic fertilizer and pesticides, the following practices will be
used:
1.) Irrigation: The goal with turfgrass irrigation should be to maximize the efficient use of
water and minimize any irrigation runoff If an automatic irrigation system is used, it should
be visually monitored while in use on a regular basis. Spray heads should be adjusted to
prevent over-spray onto pavement, and any broken heads should be fixed promptly. Overwatering can lead to turfgrass disease; therefore the watering schedule should be adjusted
regularly to fit the prevailing weather conditions. Irrigation at dawn allows for drying of the
leaf surface before nighttime, thus minimizing the opportunity for disease.
2.) Mowing: Mowing should occur on a regular basis, and no more than one-third of the leaf
blade should be removed at a time. Grass clippings should not be bagged, and any grass
clods resulting from mowing should be scattered. Clippings will return nitrogen back to the
soil as they decompose, minimizing the need for fertilization. To minimize the opportunity
for plant disease, avoid mowing wet foliage, keep mowers adjusted and blades sharp.
Maintain a high mowing height within a species' adapted range. Raise the mowing height
during periods of environmental stress or disease outbreaks. Weeds should always be mown
before seed is produced.
3.) Top dressing: Top dressing (spreading a thin layer of compost or other organic matter on the
turf) is an effective way to fertilize the soil and control thatch. Control of thatch will reduce
the chance for disease and improve water filtration. Thatch is a layer of dead leaves and
stems held together by grass roots and stolons. Though a thin layer of thatch seems to be
beneficial to the growth of turf, thick layers can cause the turf to grow aboveground and can
contribute to disease and insect problems. Thatch can severely restrict the movement of
pesticides. Top-dressing with compost may reduce the severity of certain plant diseases.

c.
Aerification: Aeriflcation is the process of dc-compacting the top few inches of soil by
removing soil cores or simply punching holes into the soil. This practice increases water
infiltration, relieves soil compaction, and accelerates decomposition of the thatch layer.
Fertilization: The nutrient requirements of turf grass vary with the amount of organic matter
in the soil and the amount of water received. The amount and frequency of fertilizer use will
be dependent on an analysis of the soil. A 3-1-2 ratio of macronutrients (N-P-K) is usually
best. Granular fertilizers will be slow-release (a.k.a. timed-release). Top-dressing with
organic fertilizer is ideal. Slow-release and organic fertilizers shall be lightly
to
incorporate the nutrients into the soil and make them less available for runoff. Fertilizers
shall not be
shall not be applied during wet weather or when rainfall is imminent
applied within any environmentally sensitive areas, or within 50' of a waterway.
Overseeding: Overseeding of turfgrass with a cool-season grass while the warm-season
grass is dormant may inhibit weed germination.
Disease-resistant species: Plant disease-resistant species and cultivars whenever possible.
Recommendations for regionally adapted cultivars can be obtained from most Cooperative
Extension Service offices.
Night lighting: Since the adults (moths) of sod webworms and armyworms are attracted to
lights at night and they oviposit nearby, place lights away form sensitive turf areas. Lights
with the yellow range are also much less attractive to night flying insects.
Biological control tactics for fire ants will include the use of nematodes. Nematodes
(Neopleotana Carpocapsae), which are slender, microscopic, unsegmented worms, may be
applied over the turf during the warm season to control soil dwelling insect pests. Best results are
obtained by applying the nematodes in the late afternoon, just before sunset.

1PM PLAN for
TERMITES
(6/26100)
1.
Pest(s) to be controlled: termites.
2. Biology of the eastern subterranean termite, Reticulitermes flavipes:
Subterranean termites are social insects that live in colonies of winged reproductives, sterile
workers and soldiers. Overcrowded conditions prompt reproductives to swann, usually
during the first warm humid days of spring. Winged termites are often confused with ants
but their equal-sized pair of wings can identify them. It is. important that a positive
identification be made of suspected termite infestations. Subterranean termites are different
from other termites in that they must have regular contact with moisture. This is generally
accomplished by building earthen tubes to the soil. Water leaks in structures provide a good
enviromnent from which termites can build tubes. In most structures, these tubes are visible
on exterior walls, but they may be present on interior walls as well if termites have gained
access through cracks in slabs.
The important first step in a termite control program is the elimination of conditions that
favor termite survival. These steps include the removal of wood debris around structures,
eliminating areas of earth-to-wood contact and constructing barriers to termite entry. It is
also important to regularly monitor structures for signs of moisture, damaged wood, or
earthen termite tunnels and to act only if these signs are present. The most vulnerable stages
of the termite colony are the eggs and immatures.
3. Control tactics:
a.
Physical control tactics will include the plugging of cracks and crevices in structures that
may provide access. Any exterior feature that leaks water such as guttering and water
pipes will be repaired. Physical controls also include the use of a stainless steel wire
mesh perimeter barrier around the building. Installers should be trained and accredited
for quality control.

RODENTS
(6/26/00)
1.
Pest(s) to be controlled: rodents.
2.
Biology of the common house mouse, Mus musculus, roof rat,
norvegicus:
rattus and Norway rat, Rattus
are found
The house mouse, roof and Norway rats are rodents intimately associated with people,
almost everywhere humans live or work. While wild mice and ratc will invade houses when weather
changes, these pests are dependent on man for shelter and food. The reproductive rate of rodents in
general and mice in particular is very high. Female mice produce 10 litters a year, 6-7 young per
litter. Rats are almost as productive, but suffer high mortality. All rodents respond to trapping or
other declines in their population by producing more litters.
Strategies to control rodents involve primarily preventative steps to limit access to shelter and food,
trapping to reduce small populations, and poisoning.
3. Control tactics:
a.
Physical control tactics will include the filling of access holes, making food storage rodent-proof,
and the use of barriers. These measures will include the inspection of sewer lines into dwellings
and cracks in foundations.
b. Mechanical control tactics will include the trapping of rodent populations in snap traps or glue
boards. A large number of traps will be placed to have the desired effect on the population.
c.
The use of domestic cats will be considered as a biological control tactic, if they will not become
pests themselves.
d.
Non-toxic and less persistent control tactics will include the use of cholecalciferol, which will not
lead to secondary poisoning.

Pest(s) to be controlled: cockroaches
2. Biology of the German cockroach, Blattella germanica:
There are five speèies of cockroaches that commonly infest houses, with the Gennan
cockroach being one of the most widely distributed. Roaches are tropical insects that have
adapted to living with man by seeking areas where they can get warmth and moisture, such
as bathrooms and kitchens. Female roaches glue egg cases, called ootheca, to the surfaces of
any dark place. The average development time for the German cockroach from egg to adult
is 55-68 days. Adults can live more than 200 days. They are active at night.
3.
Control tactics:
a.
Physical control tactics will include the sealing of cracks and crevices and the screening
of windows and vents to limit access from the outside. Roach traps will be used to
monitor to pest population.
b. Cultural control tactics will include good sanitation, including the proper storage of food
and regular cleaning.
c.
There are currently no biological control tactics available for control of cockroaches.
d. Non-toxic and less persistent control tactics will insecticidal dusts and baits, and insect
growth regulators.

MOSQUITOES
(6/26/00)
1.
Pest(s) to be controlled: mosquitoes
2. Biology of the mosquito, Order Diptera. Family Culicidae:
Adult mosquitoes are small, slender, long-legged flies with a long piercing mouthpart called the
proboscis. Mosquitoes develop through four distinct stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Adult
females feed on animal blood for the protein needed to produce eggs. Eggs are laid sing!y or in
on still or slow-moving water. Some mosquitoes lay eggs in temporary water basins such as
tree holes or at the edges of flood prone areas.
Mosquito eggs may lie donnant for months before hatching, but under most circumstances hatch
Within 2 to 6 days. The aquatic larva and pupa stages each take from 4 to 10 days to develop and
represent the most vulnerable stages. Adults can live up to 2 months after emergence. Most
mosquitoes die within yards of where they emerged.
The most effective method of controlling mosquitoes is to limit the number of water basins where
eggs can hatch. Examples of temporary basins include cans and jars, clogged roof gutters, used tires,
plant saucers, plastic sheeting, and wheelbarrows. Larger, more permanent water basins can be
drained or filled in. However, not all water basins can or should be altered for environmental reasons.
In addition, the excessive use of fertilizers should be discouraged as fertilizers in water Will promote.
algae blooms that protects the mosquitoes from predation by fish.
3.
Control tactics:
a.
Physical control tactics will include the use of screens on windows and doors. Electric "bug
zapper? will not be used, as they are not effective at reducing mosquito populations since they
target only adults, and affect non-target insect populations as well.
b. Mechanical control tactics Will include the use of suffocating surface film where practical. This
will include those basins not subject to runoff. The films to be used are highly refmed and
biodegradable, with no effect on human or non-target species.
4.
c.
Biological control tactics Will include the use of native mosquito-eating fish (Gambusia) in
permanent pools, where a viable fish population can be maintained.
d.
Least toxic and less persistent chemical control tactics will include the use of Bacillus
thuringiensis israelensis or pyrethrum larvicides. These products will be applied to water basins
where mosquito larvae develop.

FLEAS
(6/26/00)
1.
Pest(s) to be controlled: fleas.
2. Biology of the cat flea, Ctenocephalides felis:
egg, larva,
Fleas are associated with warm-blooded animals and pass through four life
pupa, and adult. Optimal flea development is at 65 to 80 degrees F. with a relative humidity
of 70%. Hot dry summers reduce flea populations while cool rainy weather increases
populations. When adult fleas emerge from pupae, they immediately seek a blood meal from
warm-blooded animals. After mating, females lay eggs on hosts or on their sleeping areas.
Eggs hatch into larvae within 12 days and usually feed on organic debris for 8-24 days.
Pupae usually emerge into adults in 5-7 days. If conditions for development are unfavorable,
larvae can live for up to 200 days and pupae for up to one year. An effective control strategy
is to arrest flea development before the pupal stage to prevent explosive population growth
when optimal conditions occur.
3. Control tactics:
a. Physical control tactics will include combing and bathing of pets, and vacuuming or
washing of rugs, carpets, furniture and pet sleeping areas. The number of fleas captured
in combs is to be used as an indicator of the overall flea population and should be
monitored. When fleas reach annoying levels, an increase in fleas captured in combs
prompts the next control tactic.
b. Mechanical control tactics will include the screening of pets from areas where fleas
congregate or where vacuuming or washing would be difficult. If flea monitoring
indicates mechanical controls have not decreased the flea population, then next control
tactic is prompted. Note: Some non-toxic control products work mechanically, but are
included in the non-toxic category.
c. Biological control tactics include the use of nematodes, which are slender, microscopic,
unsegmented worms. This nematode has been cultured to hunt, seek, and destroy specific
soil-borne insects.
Active Ingredient

d. Non-toxic and less persistent control tactics will include dusting pets, and the places they
inhabit, with products containing pyrethrum, silica aerogel, or diatomaceous earth. Yards
or other outdoor areas inhabited by pets will be sprayed with products containing
insecticidal soap, pyrethrum, or rotenone. Higher concentrations of fleas may occur in
the shady areas versus the dry sunny areas. An insect growth regulator will be added to
the spray before application.

I. Pest to be controlled: red imported fire ants
2. Biology of the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta:
The red imported fire ant is a tropical insect that was accidentally introduced into the United
States in the 1930s and has spread unchecked across the Southeast and into Texas: Fire ants
mating flights that usually occur in the spring and fall, but may
disperse naturally
occur anytime warm humid conditions exist, even during the winter. Fire ant queens are also
dispersed by the movement of infested nursery stock and turf sod, and even by vehicles. Fire
ant colonies are known to raft to higher ground during floods. The most visible indication of
the presence of fire ants is their characteristic cone-shaped mounds.
The only way to effectively control or suppress fire ants is to use a method that will stop egg
production by the queen(s). Killing workers will have no lasting effect on the fire ant colony.
Therefore the use of granular insecticides, which frequently do not come in cohtact with the
queen, is not a long-term solution. The ineffective use of pesticides, especially in
environmentally sensitive areas, should be avoided.
3.
Control tactics:
a. Physical control tactics will include the use of hot water to drench individual fire ant
mounds. Mounds will be drenched mid-morning with at least a gallon of hot water on the
sun-side of the mound in an attempt to kill queen(s). Drenched mounds will be rebuilt by
surviving workers, but the colony will soon disperse if the queen is killed. If mounds
persist, it will prompt the use of the next control tactic.
b. There are no mechanical control tactics available to control fire ants.
c.
Biological control tactics include the use of nematodes, which are slender, microscopic,
unsegmented worms. This nematode has been cultured to hunt, seek, and destroy soilboring fire ants by invading ant colonies.

d. Non-toxic and less persistent control tactics include the broadcast of fire ant baits. Fire
ant baits are designed to be attractive to foraging fire ants and eventually become passed
to the queen(s). The effect of the bait will be to neutralize the queen by stopping egg
production. Because fire ants will not forage when ground temperature is below 700 or
above 95°, and because the baits will not remain attractive if wet, care shall be taken to
apply the baits when the soil and vegetation are warm and dry. Apply baits when no rain
is expected for at least 8 hours. In summer, apply baits in the evening, since ants do not
forage during extreme heat. As fire ant baits require several weeks or more to affect

Water Conservation — Tips
Tips for saving water
You can make a difference
Water conservation and effidency are important to the protection of our drinkingwater
resources. By using water wisely, you can lessen aemand on the water supply AND save money
on your water bill. Here are some tips for saving water outdoors, when watering, mowing and
planting; and indoors in the bathroom, kitchen and around the house.
OUTDOORS
Watering
In the summer, lawn watering and other outdoor uses can account for 50 to 80 percent of home
water use. Studies show that as much as half of this outdoor use is wasteful.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Don't overwater your landscape. It can cause yellowing leaves or poor plant health. Give
plants only the amount of water that they need.
Use low-angle sprinklers that produce droplets of water. Sprinklers that spray the water
high into the air or produce a mist or fine spray lose much of the water through
evaporation.
Don't water on windy days.
Set sprinklers to water the lawn, not sidewalks and driveways.
Use drip irrigation for shrub beds, gardens and trees. Drip irrigation systems apply water
directly to the root, where it does the most good, and reduces water loss from
evaporation.
Adjust your watering habits or irrigation system according to the weather and season.
Check your sprinkler or irrigation systems regularly for any leaks, and fix them.
Be sure your hose has an automatic shutoff nozzle to ensure water is not wasted when
the hose is left unattended.
Mowing
•
•
•
Don't cut the grass too short. Longer blades of grass will reduce evaporation and root
stress because shaded soil does not dry out as quickly.
Mow regularly with a sharp blade so that only 1/2 to 314 of an inch is cut off each time.
This practice will prevent the grass from turning yellow.
Leave grass clippings on the lawn. Grass clippings contain valuable nutrients for the soil
and plants. If left on the lawn, the clippings will reduce the need for additional, expensive
fertilizers.

Water Conservation — Tips
Planting
Use mulches in plower and shrub beds. Mulches cover and shade soil, minimize
evaporation, reduce weed growth, and slow erosion. Mulches also add a decorative
appearance to the landscape.
Add two to four inches of organic material, such as peat or compost, to the soil. Greater
•
•
soil depth will increase the ablifty of the soil to retain moisture.
Use water-wise plants. Native and adaptive plants will use less water and be resistant to
local plant diseases and pests.
Recognize that different plants require different amounts of water. Place your plants
according to their water needs. Place plants that need occasional watering in one zone
and those that only need natural rainfall in another zone. This way, you will not waste
water on plants that don't need it.
•
•
IN DOORS
Bathroom
Bathroom use accounts for about 75 percent of the water used inside the home.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Check regularly for any leaks and fix them. Most common bathroom leaks are found in
toilets, faucets, and water hose bibs.
Replace older, larger-use toilets with the newer ultra-low flush models. Standard toilets
manufactured prior to the 1980$ usually require five to seven gallons per flush. Toilets
sold during the 80s and early 90s use 3.5 gallons per flush. Since 1992, new toilets must
use 1.6 gallons or less per flush.
Install a displacement device, such as a plastic bottle or toilet tank bag or "bank," inside
the toilet tank. These devices can save up to 20 percent of the water your toilet uses.
(Note: Do NOT use a brick — it can crumble and damage the fixture.)
Do NOT use the toilet to dispose of paper, facial tissues, or cigarettes.
Take a five-minute shower, rather than a bath.
Install a low-flow showerhead. It can save about half the amount of water you typically
use in the shower, while still providing a refreshing, cleansing shower.
Turn the tap water off while brushing your teeth or shaving.

Water Conservation — Tips
About 8 percent of in-home water use takes place in the kitchen.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Install a low-flow faucet aerator, which can cut water use in half.
Soak pots and pans before washing.
Fill the basin or a pan with water to wash fruits and vegetables.
Instead of letting hot water run over frozen foods, let them thaw in the. refrigerator, or
thaw them in a small amount of boiling water or in the microwave.
Keep a pitcher of water in the refrigerator rather than running tap water until it Is cool
enough to drink.
Avoid using the garbage disposal. Instead, compost your food wastes. You can use the
compost in your garden to improve your soil, as well as reduce your water use and the
need for expensive fertilizers.
When buying a new dishwasher, consider purchasing a water-saving model. Newer
models can cut water use by 25 percent and are no more expensive than non-conserving
models.
Wash only full loads in the dishwasher.
Around the house
•
•
•
•
When buying a new clothes washer, consider purchasing a water-saving model. New
horizontal axis models can save up to 40 percent of the water used
a conventional
model.
Wash only full loads in the clothes washer.
Insulate hot water pipes where possible to avoid long delays (and wasted water) while
waiting for the water to "run hot."
Be sure the water heater thermostat is not set too high. Very hot sethngs (higher than
125 degrees F) waste energy since the water has to be mixed with cold water before use.
