Q: What kills weeds down to the root?

• <div><p>There are many options to eradicate weeds right down to the roots. Vinegar works, but it takes a week or so to do its thing, and the same goes for many commercially available herbicides. Boiled water is a quick way to kill off roots, or you can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/controlling-weeds-yard-and-garden.htm">pull up weeds</a> at the root.</p></div>

Q: Why do I have so much clover in my lawn?

• <div><p>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.</p><p>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&rsquo;ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.</p></div>

Q: Is pulling weeds a waste of time?

• <div><p>No, definitely not. Pulling weeds by hand is the single most effective way to remove them because you're eliminating the entire plant&mdash;roots and all&mdash;so it won&rsquo;t have a chance to grow or spread. Setting time aside a few times per week to pull weeds can keep them at bay. If the number of weeds gets overwhelming, then you can resort to other methods. </p></div>

Q: How do I know when to apply pre-emergent herbicide?

• <div><p>The best time to fight crabgrass with pre-emergent herbicide is when forsythias tend to bloom. In the mid-Atlantic region, this is usually between April and May. Even if you're late to apply the herbicide, it&rsquo;s effective as long as the crabgrass plant has fewer than five leaves.</p></div>

Q: How often should you get weed control services?

• <div><p>You should get at least one weed control application in the spring, and it&rsquo;s a good idea for a <b>monthly service</b> through the summer and early fall. The best approach to keeping weeds at bay on your property is to hire a weed control company to lay down a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-prevent-weeds-pre-emergent-herbicide.htm">pre-emergent weed killer </a>in the early spring. These herbicides kill weeds before they can root, making your job for the rest of the season far easier. Monthly applications after that point, combined with manual removal or spot treatment, should be plenty to maintain a weed-free yard.</p></div>

Rubicon climbed up in my small attic on a very hot day and repaired my ductwork. All rooms in my house now have heat and air again. Professional service at a very good price. I would hire again and recomend to all my friends.

The day the service was scheduled did not go well. We were scheduled between 8 and 12, but they called in the morning to move it back to 10 to 2. I called them after 2 because we had not heard anything. The technician finally came around 3:45. I think it is very poor customer service to expect...

Excellent. Very professional and technically superior service staff. Probably the best service experience we've ever had from an HVAC company. Great office staff too. Our cooling costs have actually been reduced and our heat works wonderfully well. We called HUFT after poor experience...
