"They turned a decades old 75 foot mound of dirt into a beautiful level landscape with two retaining walls. Very skilled and hardworking. Worked 7 days in a row to get the job done and did a really good cleanup at the end. Fair price that observed our requests for the shape of the yard."

He showed up on time, delivered everything that he promised, communicated with me every day, introduced me to his crew, took our request for changes in stride, and cleaned up all the mess before he left. We couldn't be happier with his services."

My name is Dusty, and to put it in simple terms my Grandpa said "he knows grass". But seriously, I grew up in The Largest Potato Producing County in the world. In 2nd or 3rd grade we grew grass, and did a lot of things related to the science of growing. Photosynthesis is a process of survival for plants but other factors could affect how the plant actually takes in light. If the plant 🪴 (including your lawn) doesn't absorb nutrients or something as simple as drainage isn't done right it can cause lots of problems.\n\nSo my approach is "Let's get to the ROOT CAUSE of all your property problems"!\n\nI've worked landscaping crews and never appreciated how much they charge for a MOW N' BLOW, or a fee for "Grass Height"!? No, here at Carrot Top, I strive to provide you the best customer service based on three main core values of our company: Honesty, Integrity, and Communication. Carrot Top LC&M isn't just cutting service. We care for your property just like if it was you 🫵 taking care of it!

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

The best time to hire a weed service company is in the early spring. This allows them to apply a pre-emergent weed killer that stops weeds from taking root, making maintenance for the rest of the season much easier. Following the initial spring application, a monthly service through the summer and early fall is a good idea for ongoing weed control. These regular treatments, combined with manual removal or spot treatment, should be sufficient to maintain a weed-free yard. Alternatively, you can hire a professional in the fall for the following year, as some companies may offer better rates on contracts signed before the busy spring season.

Vinegar cannot tell the difference between weeds and desired grass types; it kills everything it touches. Only use a vinegar or vinegar-based solution if you are relatively confident that you can navigate around the plants and grasses you want to keep. Also, don’t spray vinegar on a windy day, or it will blow onto other plants.

Due to its slow growth, Bahia grass does not generally take over weeds. In fact, the opposite can be true. Young Bahia grass is susceptible to being taken over by weeds. 

Likewise, in the cool season, Bahia grass goes into a dormant state that can allow weeds that thrive in early spring to get the upper hand. If you want to prevent weeds from taking over your yard, remove them by hand or apply a Bahia grass-friendly pre-emergent herbicide to your lawn before weeds have a chance to appear.

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.

All herbicides come with risks, but you can control and mitigate risks by discussing your options with your weed service company before application. Some companies use milder or sustainable herbicides more times per season to control weeds rather than one to two herbicide sprayings annually. You can also ask your professional about pet-friendly and kid-friendly services. In most cases, though, you can wait a few days after the application for the herbicides to soak into the ground, at that point they shouldn’t pose a risk to you or your family.
