"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jeremiah and his lawn care service! From the very beginning, he was professional, responsive, reliable, and incredibly pleasant to work with. He took great pride in his work and paid attention to all the little details, leaving our yard looking absolutely beautiful. It was obvious that he genuinely cares about doing a great job and making sure his customers are happy. Jeremiah went above and beyond what we expected, and the quality of his work was outstanding. I would highly, highly recommend Jeremiah to anyone looking for lawn care or landscaping services. He is hardworking, trustworthy, respectful, and takes his work seriously, which can be difficult to find these days. We are so happy with the results and will absolutely use him again in the future. If you are considering hiring him, I would not hesitate for a second — you will be very happy you did! Jeremiah is truly someone I would recommend to my family, friends, and neighbors."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

The main problem with crabgrass is that it produces thousands of seeds that can remain dormant until the following season. To get rid of it, you have to remove existing plants before they have a chance to spread seeds and stop old seeds from germinating.

Crabgrass is very resilient, and homemade solutions like vinegar may not be strong enough. Typically, hand-weeding is the most effective option that doesn’t involve harmful chemicals. You can use corn-meal gluten as a natural pre-emergent herbicide, but it’s not as effective as chemical weed killers.

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.

If you have a lot of tree roots in your yard or have experienced issues in the past, you should use tree root killer every six months to prevent roots from infiltrating your pipes. If you have an active invasion and aren’t seeing results, check the instructions on the bottle to see how often you can use it in a short period of mine.

Too much clover in your lawn can indicate several issues with your soil. Clover can thrive in soils with abnormally high pH, low-cut grass, and low nitrogen. Amending these issues can push clover out for good.

Hardy perennial clover loves the low nitrogen and compact conditions that often come with poor, infertile soils. But other factors also contribute to a clover explosion, including drought conditions, cool temperatures, under fertilization, and over-irrigation. You’ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.
