"Mike from Hornsby Mowing did an excellent job with my yard. I told him I wanted basic services, which included mowing the lawn and cleaning up the debris. He went the extra mile by trimming both the front and back yard, and he honored my request to make my yard look clean and tidy again. He was quick to respond to my questions, offered me a fair price, and gave me several ways to contact him for his services. I would highly recommend HornsbyMowing and look forward to continuing business with him. Thank-you Mike Sincerely!!!"

"They were prompt to call me back, very quickly when I called to check on the service. They were very professional, confident and when they came out they explained what they were going to do. They mowed, edged, picked up sticks and rocks in the yard and threw them away. They even pulled weeds that were coming from the concrete driveway which has never been done before. They are a local, new business and they are dynamite! These days good customer service hard to find and few and far between. They were top notch, they payed attention to detail and they made it personal; they made me feel like I was someone they cared about. I would recommend them to all my friends and family."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Clover is a sustainable, low-maintenance alternative to turfgrass, allowing homeowners to put away the mower while enjoying a lush and consistent lawn. The plant also attracts pollinators, adds nitrogen to low-nutrient soil, and holds up in a range of climates. Consult a local lawn care professional to determine whether replacing your grass with clover is right for your yard.

Clover lawns stand up better against dog and cat urine than traditional turfgrass. If your pets love to hang out on the lawn on a sunny day—or if you find yourself with a lot of visiting neighborhood dogs—you could save yourself from yellow and brown patches by making the switch to a clover lawn.

The fastest ways to kill weeds and unwanted grass include burning them, pouring boiling water on them, or pulling them out by hand, as these methods work almost instantaneously. For a quick-acting solution that works within a few hours, you can use a commercial-grade herbicide like glyphosate or a DIY vinegar, salt, and dish soap mixture. While effective, be aware that commercial herbicides introduce chemicals into your lawn. The slowest method for killing weeds is to starve them of sunlight and nutrients using mulch or fabric covers.

Burning is not a recommended method for controlling foxtail grasses. In a large pasture scenario, the fire moves too quickly through the weeds to effectively burn and kill the seeds, meaning they will resprout eventually. If your lawn is overrun with foxtails, it’s best to consult a lawn care professional for suggestions on how to permanently remove it from your property.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.
