"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

Herbicide application, manual removal, and landscape fabric are common approaches.

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.

Noxious weeds can be poisonous or act as an irritant to humans, but not all are directly harmful. However, indirectly, noxious weeds also compete with native species, effectively affecting our local ecosystems of plants, pollinators, and other animals.

It usually takes between two weeks and a month for weeds to fully die off after you spray them with herbicide, but they will start to wilt within the first week. Different weed sprays produce different results, with some working more quickly and effectively than others. Similarly, some weeds are killed more easily than others. Consult your weed removal pro for an exact timeline based on their weed removal method.

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.
