"This is a fine "up and coming" company. Great follow through by Will who is the owner. He had great suggestions for replacing existing plants. He called promptly and appeared promptly! Customer service is very important to me. I owned my own business some time ago so I put a lot of value on how I am treated. The work was meticulous and the price was reasonable. I would definitely call Knox Landscaping & Design for any future projects (Will Knox) I have."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

It’s best to pull weeds when the soil is wet, as it’s much easier. Wet soil is much softer than dry soil, making it easier to pull the entire weed up by the root. Also, since the soil is wet, the roots will let go of the soil and slide up with less resistance. Be careful when working on your wet garden, though, as wet soil is easier to compact, which can harm your plants.

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.

Herbicide application, manual removal, and landscape fabric are common approaches.

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.

Look for a broadleaf herbicide, one that has been formulated specifically for dandelions and is considered grass-safe.
