The Cutest

( and Greenest)

Landscaping Option

If you have a half-acre or more of yard that’ s overgrown and hard to maintain, you may want to look into Have U Herd, a suburban goat rental business owned by Rainy Laux. Rainy’ s 30 goats offer customers a lot more value and an experience that can’ t be matched, all for a lower price than a landscaper.

“ Goats are ideal for properties with invasive poison ivy, unsightly overcrowding underbrush, and creeping vines,” she said.“ The goats eat these undesired broadleaved plants, not lawn grass, bypassing the need for toxic weed killers.”
The process is a simple one: The property owner meets with Rainy to go over the job, how much land needs to be cleared and how safe the yard is for goats.
Then, a perimeter of lightweight, solar powered electric fencing is set up around the area. The electric fence has a similar voltage to a pet perimeter training collar. It keeps the goats safely in and predators and neighborhood dogs out. The goats take care of the rest.
With green goat grazing becoming popular in the Midwest, and Pittsburgh beginning to employ them, Rainy is expanding her rentals to private residential land, schools, cemeteries, office parks, retirement homes, and golf courses.
For more information, or to schedule a free consultation, call Rainy Laux at 412.414.1001, or email haveuherdgoats @ gmail. com. Visit online at HaveUHerd. com or on Facebook.
