"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."

"The first company we’ve hired for yard work who did exactly what we requested. They did everything: weeded, mowed, raked, removed a dead tree, and several barrels of broken masonry. Very impressed."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Crabgrass is very resilient, and homemade solutions like vinegar may not be strong enough. Typically, hand-weeding is the most effective option that doesn’t involve harmful chemicals. You can use corn-meal gluten as a natural pre-emergent herbicide, but it’s not as effective as chemical weed killers.

Glyphosate and other non-selective herbicides can kill orchard grass, but they will also kill the surrounding plants. Also, not all areas allow the use of glyphosate due to its environmental impact—which the EPA describes as a "potential risk to terrestrial and aquatic plants and birds, and low toxicity to honeybees." Consider mechanical removal to target the plants specifically.

Johnsongrass and crabgrass are invasive weeds that can overtake your lawn. Crabgrass is a low-growing grass most often seen in lawns, flower beds, and vegetable gardens. While you may find Johnsongrass growing in your lawn, it will also grow in pastures, crop fields, and the edge of the road. Johnsongrass is much coarser than crabgrass. If left alone, Johnsongrass can grow up to 8 feet tall. 

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.

Landscape fabric and a few inches of gravel should be enough to put under a deck to prevent weeds from flourishing. If you don’t want to invest the time and money on a project like this, you can regularly spray the area underneath your deck to kill weeds.
