"JV Lawn and Garden did a fantastic job with our fall yard clean up. Julio was professional, detail oriented, and easy to work with. We had lots of overgrown landscaping with tons of weeds and poison ivy. Julio made helpful suggestions about what to take out, was flexible with timing, and the pricing was fair. They worked extremely hard and kept us informed throughout the day. We were very pleased with the result and plan to hire them again!"

"5 stars! Eric has been so responsive, professional, hard working and honest. We were looking for lawn mowing, weeding and mulching and Eric provided detailed quotes quickly...and his pricing was very competitive with other businesses. On work days Eric and Trey show up early and work non-stop until the job is done. The results look fantastic -- and they always make sure to clean up. Most importantly, Eric is honest -- when a job was finished faster than expected and less material was used he discounted the bill accordingly. We have been so pleased with Leeds we are going to also use them for fertilizing and weed control going forward."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s not legal to intentionally damage a neighbor’s tree. Even if the roots of a tree encroach into your yard, if you damage or kill a tree that belongs to your neighbor, you can be held liable for the damage in most cases. Since herbicides can spread through the tree, causing damage to the whole tree and not just the roots that are on your side of the property line, you shouldn’t poison your neighbor’s tree. The other downside to this method is that if the tree dies, it can fall onto your property and cause more damage, so herbicides are best avoided in this circumstance.

Yes, suggesting companion planting and mulching to minimize new growth.

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.

Vinegar is known to be a contact herbicide, which means it kills the foliage it comes in contact with. Because of the high acetic acid concentration, horticultural vinegar kills weeds and grass more effectively. However, keep in mind that high amounts and multiple applications can affect the soil by lowering the pH levels.
