Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Yes, dandelions are considered perennial, broadleaf weeds.

Some of the particular herbicides that work best to get rid of nut grass without killing the grass include Halosulfuron-methyl, mesotrione, sulfentrazone, and metsulfuron. A herbicide like glyphosate would kill nutgrass, but it will kill nearby plants, too.

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.

The most effective way to eliminate quack grass without killing the grass nearby is to overseed the area, keep the seed wet until it grows, mow often, and regularly fertilize the area to promote healthy grass that can choke out the invasive weed.

There are a few things you should ask a weed service company before hiring to ensure you’re choosing the best professional for the job:

How often will you apply herbicides?
Do you include any spot treatments or manual weed removal in your pricing?
Do you offer pet-safe and kid-safe herbicides?
What other lawn services can you provide?
Do you offer any kind of guarantee for the work performed?
Are you properly licensed and fully insured?
Do you have any customer references I could speak with?
