Your landscape / Your priorities
Start with
what grows here.
Kansas landscapes include grasslands, wooded waterways and areas of eastern redcedar. Around homes and larger properties, maintained yards can transition into taller grass, brush and tree cover.
We assess selected ground vegetation around your priority buildings and property edges. Komodo pretreatment can be considered alongside mowing, fuel reduction and routine maintenance, with the proposed areas clearly defined.
Vegetation varies from property to property. We confirm suitable treatment areas during your assessment.
Local & regional wildfire history
A reason to plan ahead.
Past fires in Kansas give context to the importance of preparedness. These are historical examples, not current incident alerts.
Road 702 Fire
Northern Kansas and southwest Nebraska
In April 2022, the Road 702 Fire spread from northern Norton County, Kansas, toward the Red Willow and Furnas county line in Nebraska during strong winds.

Why Komodo pretreatment
Treat the fuel.
Prepare ahead.
WTG professionally applies Komodo long-term fire retardant to suitable vegetation and ground fuels before a wildfire occurs.
01 / Fire behavior
Help slow fire spread.
Long-term retardant changes how treated fuel burns, helping slow fire spread and reduce fire intensity. Treatment focuses on the selected fuels within your agreed scope.
02 / Beyond water alone
Works after drying.
The retardant action continues after the application water evaporates. Weather, irrigation and changes to treated vegetation affect when inspection or reapplication is needed.
03 / Professional application
A focused plan for your land.
WTG handles the treatment review, application and completion record. You know which areas are included, what preparation is needed and what the work costs before deciding.
Komodo is described by its manufacturer as colorless and odorless; a white residue may be visible. We discuss appearance and suitability when reviewing your property. Learn more about Komodo.
