The Sanibel Ball Field Complex at 3840 Sanibel-Captiva Road will be closed to the public, weather permitting, on Thursday and Friday, July 2-3, 2009, for treatment of nematodes.
Plant parasitic nematodes reduce the root system’s ability to utilize nutrients and water; thereby, inhibiting turf growth. After treatment, improvement in the turf quality should be seen within twenty-one days. The treated areas are recommended for closure for a minimum of twenty-four hours after the anti-parasite application.
This process was approved by the City of Sanibel Natural Resources Department.
The Sanibel Recreation Center is located at 3880 Sanibel-Captiva Road. Daily, weekly, semi-annual and annual memberships are available. For more information call the Sanibel Recreation Center at (239) 472-0345 or visit our web site at www.mysanibel.com .
