Here is an easy question: How many countries have a 4th of July? If you answered one, you would be wrong. Every country has a 4th of July, but none are quite like ours. Fresh cut grass, fireworks, baseball, barbecues and all of the sights and sounds that come with them. Here are some tips for making your 4th of July party the best on the block:
You want people to be comfortable while they’re chowing down on some grub! If possible, try and keep folding chairs and tables on your deck or patio, because they tend to dig into the grass. If you want a quick and decorative centerpiece for your table, throw some red, white and blue gumballs in a mason jar and voilà, centerpiece!
While burgers and hotdogs are essential to any American BBQ, we know you like to think outside the box. Try out this recipe for Firecracker Grilled Alaska Salmon to impress even your biggest food critics. Be sure to give your grill a thorough inspection before use, and keep your fuel tank locked away in case of any stray sparklers or fireworks.
Sugary scents are like an open invitation for insects, so try to keep you fruity drinks and desserts covered or indoors at all times. If you are having mosquito problems before your big party, call our sister company Pest Control Unlimited at 888-649-9919, and learn more about their 95% effective mosquito application.
The 4th of July party is a great place to show off your beautiful lawn in front of all your friends and family. Get out the mower and the edger and give that lawn of yours a quick grooming before your guests arrive.
What’s a 4th of July celebration without some Americana decor? You can stick mini flags in your makeshift center pieces and hang a big flag for everyone to see. Remember that the stars should always be at the top left for the viewer, and the flag should always be illuminated!
