WEED CONTROL IN LANDSCAPE BEDS
We offer an early spring application of a preemergent and weed control in your landscape beds, which lasts all year long. For our customers who take the full five application fertilizer program for their lawn, we will spray the weeds in their landscape beds during each application.
TIMING:
The initial treatment is typically applied in February to March (weather dependent).
DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE:
We apply a mix with two different preemergents designed to control both grassy and broadleaf types of of weeds before they come up. This product forms a barrier in the soil to destroy the weeds before you see them. As the weed seeds germinate and come in contact with the barrier, the weeds are killed. It is very important that the preemergent is watered in with at least a half inch of water or three inches of snow within three weeks of the application. The product that we use typically controls about 85% of the weeds. Any weeds that are not controlled with the preemergent will be treated at the time of your fertilizer applications. Although we can spray close to desirable plants in your beds, we need to stay a few inches away. This means that you will need to hand pull weeds within a few inches of these plants (sorry, we do not offer this service).
PRICING:
Price is based on the amount of product that will need to be applied.
