"Our lawn was a mess .. despite fertilizing and liming and seeding for years it was a weedy crabgrass mess. We interviewed 5 groups and TLM was our top choice. They didn’t offer the same old fertilizing schedule and instead told about slicing first. He was so meticulous in his work. Now people stop us when walking by the house to comment on the green carpet"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Vinegar is known to be a contact herbicide, which means it kills the foliage it comes in contact with.

However, keep in mind that high amounts and multiple applications can affect the soil by lowering the pH levels.

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

The best way to prevent weeds is to use polymeric sand, which hardens and blocks weed growth when activated with water. If you're using regular sand, you'll need to refill and compact it more often. Keeping the surface clean and free of debris can also help prevent weed seeds from settling in the joints.

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.

There are many options to eradicate weeds right down to the roots. Vinegar works, but it takes a week or so to do its thing, and the same goes for many commercially available herbicides. Boiled water is a quick way to kill off roots, or you can pull up weeds at the root.
